"chapter one. once upon a time, and a very good time it was,
There was a moo cow coming down along the road."

"so he came himself in weakness not in power
And he sent thee, a creature in his stead,
With a creature s comeliness and luster
Suited to our state.
And now thy very face and form dear mother,
Speak to us of the eternal;
Not like earthly beauty, dangerous to look upon,
But like the morning star which is thy emblem,
Bright and musical, breathing purity,
Telling of heaven and infusing peace.
O harbinger of day! o light of the pilgrim!
Lead us still as thou hast led.
In the dark night, across the bleak wilderness
Guide us on to our lord jesus, guide us home."

" tower of ivory? they used to say, house of gold?
How could a woman be a tower of ivory or a house of gold?"
