One foot in Eden still, I stand And look across the other land. The world’s great day is growing late, Yet strange these fields that we have planted So long with crops of love and hate.
Edwin Muir Quotes
There is a road that turning always Cuts off the country of Again. Archers stand there on every side And as it runs time’s deer is slain, And lies where it has lain.
