Vulgate Daniel

Famous quotes containing the words vulgate and/or daniel:

    The poem goes from the poet’s gibberish to
    The gibberish of the vulgate and back again.
    Does it move to and fro or is it of both
    At once? Is it a luminous flittering
    Or the concentration of a cloudy day?
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Let others sing of knights and paladins
    In aged accents and untimely words,
    Paint shadows, in imaginary lines,
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)
