delectable tit-bits
Jan. 12th, 2008 01:21 am"When I wake up early in the gloomin',
Stretch my legs. I'm not human.
"When I wake from strange unsettlin' dreams,
I've no voice, so I can't scream."
"Please don't fear me,
Don't get near me,
Leave me where I am."

I have a wonderful book about 17th century frontispieces out from the library. It has complicated medieval illustrations with allegories and things, and it explains them.
