    The wind blew all my wedding-day,
    And my wedding-night was the night of the high wind....

    Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last. To pluck the mask from the face of the Pharisee is not to lift an impious hand to the Crown of Thorns.
