    “So having said, a while he stood, expecting

    To fill his ear; when contrary, he hears,

    A dismal universal hiss, the sound
    Of public scorn.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
    I heard a Negro play.

    Down on Lenox Avenue the other night
    By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light”
    —Langston Hughes (1902–1967)
