Who is not so rare, that there is more than one of her? her every moment less than recrudescent love? his blood a treasure less than ruby? Who has not in the very namelessness of passing on the street in the air overhead altered entire, the fabric of our own existence, whose absence from the nameless space, there does not threaten the fantastic silk of Being entire? There will be a pause before annihilation when despair will hang its unbearable cry endless in the heart of the void.

From the sublime to the ridiculous. I couldn't resist quoting this little ditty from Saki's "The Secret Sin of Septimus Brope" ( http://www.fluxus.freeserve.co.uk/Clovis/SeptimusBrope.html): Daintly little girlie Mavis, She is such a rara avis, All the money I can save is All to be for Mavis mine.
In case you were wondering the secret sin of Septimus Brope is writing such rubbish . Bingley
