Only a foolish man will doubt all conspiracies.

In geography
It is very plain to see,
A wedge of rock and soil stands between
The old land they knew,
And the one they’re going to.
Observing this is neither cold or mean.
There’s a Red Sea and there’s a river,
They both are to deliver
The walkers, who walk through their lines,
Each saw a crisis hour,
Each represents its power.
That crossing over forever defines. –eab, 10/99

“Wycliffe”
Wycliffe is disinhumed,
Yea, his dry bones to ashes are consumed,
And flung into the brook that travels near;
Forthwith that ancient Voice which streams can hear
Thus speaks (that Voice which walks upon the wind,
Though seldom heard by busy human kind):
As thou these ashes, little Brook! wilt bear
Into the Avon—Avon to the tide
Of Severn—Severn to the narrow seas—
Into main ocean they,—this deed accurst,
An emblem yields to friends and enemies,
How the bold Teacher’s Doctrine sanctified
By truth, shall spread throughout the world dispersed.
William Wordsworth died this date (4/23/1850) at Westmoreland, England. He became poet-laureate in 1843. Also known for “Composed Upon Westminster Bridge.”
