    “Find out the peaceful hermitage,
    The hairy gown and mossy cell,
    Where I may sit and rightly spell
    Of every star that heaven doth show,
    And every herb that sips the dew;
    Till old experience do attain
    To something like prophetic strain.
    These pleasures Melancholy give,
    And I with thee will choose to live.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “When a tongue fails to send forth appropriate shafts, there might be a word to act as healer of these.”
