In Memoriam

Elysian Fields

Ansteorran Laurels Who Are With Us In Spirit

Make me the vessel of your excellence what you, to merit your loved laurel, ask.  Until this point, one of  Parnassus’ peaks sufficed for me; but now I face the test, the agon that is left; I need both crests… O godly force, if you so lend yourself to me, that I might show the shadow of the blessed realm inscribed within my mind, then you would see me underneath the tree you love; there I shall take as crown the leaves of which my theme and you shall make me worthy.  So seldom, father, are those garlands gathered for triumph of a ruler or a poet … that when Peneian branches can incite someone to long and thirst for them, delight must fill the happy Delphic deity. – Dante Alighieri (Paradiso. I, 13-33)
