And eternity in an hour.

The Iliad: Book 03

the Trojans advanced as a flight of wild fowl or cranes that scream
overhead when rain and winter drive them over the flowing waters of
Oceanus to bring death and destruction on the Pygmies, and they

Where the potato-gatherers like mechanised scarecrows move
Along the side-fall of the hill - Maguire and his men.

Kylemore Of Niks

The Low-down White

This is the pay-day up at the mines, when the bearded brutes come down;
There's money to burn in the streets to-night, so I've sent my klooch to town,
With a haggard face and a ribband of red entwined in her hair of brown.
