    The Senses roll themselves in fear
    And the flat Earth becomes a Ball.”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “Socrates drinking the hemlock,
    And Jesus on the rood;
    And millions who, humble and nameless,
    The straight, hard pathway plod—
    Some call it Consecration,
    And others call it God.”
    —William Herbet Carruth (1859–1929)
