    a glass eye, alt any iris or

    pupil -- just t of transparent eye, in

    to see the invisible;

    a tear, round, as it forms he eye, for

    a tear acquires its ceristic shape of a

    pear, ;tearquot; shape, only

    in t of falling;

    t trembles, sometimes, on the

    tip of tors ending

    to nevertainable

    and discernible morning erection, and

    always reminds him of

    a drop of dew,

    a drop of deremulously about to fall

    from tals of a rose and, therefore,

    like tear, retaining tion of its

    circumference only by refusing to sustain free fall,

    remaining  is, because it refuses to become

    migitamorphosis;

    and yet, in old England, far ahe

    oblate spinselled, because the

    sign-painter, in order to demonstrate the idea of

    quot;dropquot;, needs must represent t of

    falling and this

    comparison, not resembling the numinous ball

    stretched

    palm.

    For Dr Dee, try, a brave new world.

But, even in the house anyway.

    Dr Dee knoimes speaks it, but ly banal; all t;Poor toms a-cold!quot;

    Above tors urtle, stuffed. In t, amongst mucaposition of an umbrella, a seable; a raven and a ing desk; an aged mermaid, poor ure, cramped in a foetal position in ajar,  in t preserves ures rendered greenis distorted by the glass.
