“Show me the place.”
Duke Senior
in As You Like It (2.1)
91: Monument Mountain; Great Barrington, Massachusetts; June 28, 2007
We climbed that mountain, Joyce and I,
To recreate that magic day
When Melville, Hawthorne, Holmes (oh, my!)
Had also climbed. (What did they say?)
Oh, what we fans would gladly give
To hear all their recorded words!
Too long ago when they did live—
Their sentences have flown like birds.
