Alfred Edward Housman
Dismal as a wet Derby day.The steady drummer
Drumming like a noise in dreams.Glitter like an angel’s ladder.Manful as the man of stone.Old operas are like old bonnets: they ought to be remodelled, retrimmed from time to time.As reviving as an epigram.Shone like an aureole round the head of some modern saint.
