'This child of evil, cradled in a grave, / Suckled by darkness, [...] did not grow evil, / Rooted in evil – but put out bright flowers / Of innocence.' Looking forward to studying Peter Oswald's play Kaspar Hauser this week in our seminar on modern drama.

Black are my steps on silver sod; Thick blows my frosty breath abroad; And tree and house, and hill and lake, Are frosted like a wedding cake. from 'Winter-Time' by R. L. Stevenson
