    “We can slide it
    Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this
    Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards
    The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:
    They call it easing the Spring.”
    —Henry Reed (1914–1986)

    “O gentlemen, the time of life is short!
    To spend that shortness basely were too long.”
