“That loving wretch that swears
‘Tis not the bodies marry, but the minds,
Which he in her angelic finds,
Would swear as justly that he hears,
In that day’s rude hoarse minstrelsy, the spheres.
Hope not for mind in women; at their best
Sweetness and wit, they’re but Mummy, possessed.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)

Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world.”
