Additional quotes by Nathalia Crane

The sign work of the Orient it runneth up and down; The Talmud stalks from right to left, a rabbi in a gown; The Roman rolls from left to right from Maytime unto May; But the gods shake up their symbols in an absent-minded way. Their language runs to circles like the language of the eyes, Emphasised by strange dilations with little panting sighs.

The world is growing gentle, But few know what she owes To the understanding lily And the judgment of the rose.

Great is the rose Infected by the tomb, Yet burgeoning Indifferent to death.
