Indeed, on these occasions Virgilian metaphores spring full-armed from the typewriter keys. The Yale News can be forgiven for seeing itself as a phoenix rising from the Fayer-weather ashes. As for the CRIMSON, it has never felt inclined to personify itself as a bird, what with the horrible example of the Ibis at hand...
