champagne: “…Francis, perhaps, who lay in sister snow              Before the wealthy gate Freezing and praising, might have seen in this             No trifle, but  shade of bliss – That land of tolerable flowers, that state             As near and far as grass Where eyes becomes the sunlight, and the hand             Is worthy of water: the dreamt land Toward which all hungers leap, all pleasures pass.” Richard Wilbur: “A Baroque Wall-Fountain in the Villa Sciarra” (New Yorker, 1955)

“…Francis, perhaps, who lay in sister snow

             Before the wealthy gate

Freezing and praising, might have seen in this

            No trifle, but  shade of bliss –

That land of tolerable flowers, that state

            As near and far as grass

Where eyes becomes the sunlight, and the hand

            Is worthy of water: the dreamt land

Toward which all hungers leap, all pleasures pass.”

Richard Wilbur: “A Baroque Wall-Fountain in the Villa Sciarra” (New Yorker, 1955)

I’ve dreamt in my life dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they’ve gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the colour of my mind.
