...night, methought about the midnight hour, A double darkness o'er me seem'd to lower; Pensive I lay, to know what God design'd, Sensations awful fill'd my boding mind! The poor unhappy slaves rose to my view, My former guilt, their wounds now bled anew; I heard their sighs, and saw their big round tears, Wept as they wept, and fear'd with all their fears; Methought I saw once more their natal shore, All stain'd with carnage, red with human gore; Shrouded in blood they now appear'd to stand, And pointed to their agonizing...
...daybreak and only so their patrons might go forth to mate vigorously with one another as well as to attend to various incidental needs, such as nourishment, sleep and personal hygiene, that will make possible a return to partying the very next evening to begin the whole process anew...
...Case's timing was, in its way, exquisite. In these first trading weeks of the new year, Wall Street has given tech stocks a cautiously optimistic boost; analysts and investors, listening for the first footsteps of a recovery, are looking anew for winners in the post-bubble era.

There are childhood flashbacks that force grown actresses to talk like widdle girls. The literary men in their lives (Edmund Wilson, Philip Rahv) are trotted on and off the stage like stuffed dummies. There are actual stuffed dummies too--a cutesy stage device that...
Like many of my fellow students at the College, I categorically disagree with the sentiment expressed by poet Tom Paulin regarding the state of Israel and its citizens. However, I applaud the decision of the English department to extend anew its invitation for him to speak at Harvard ( News, “In About-Face, English Dept. Re-Invites Anti-Israeli Poet,” Nov. 20). Paulin had been invited to Cambridge in his capacity as a poet, not as a political thinker. He did not come here to impart an anti-Semitic manifesto...
