Or wilt thou go ask the Mole:

Can Wisdom be put in a silver rod?

Or Love in a golden bowl?

Immortal

8 lines
William Carlos Williams·1883–1963·Beat Generation
es, there is one thing braver than all flowers;Richer than clear gems; wider than the sky;Immortal and unchangeable; whose powersTranscend reason, love and sanity! And thou, beloved, art that godly thing!Marvellous and terrible; in glanceAn injured Juno roused against Heaven's King!And thy name, lovely One, is Ignorance.
