Quotes

  • There also be many Beasts, that be clept Orafles. In Arabia, they be clept Gerfaunts. That is a dappled or spotted Beast, that is but a little more high than is a Steed, but he hath the Neck a twenty Cubits long; and his Croup and his Tail be as of an Hart; and he may look over a great high House.
  •                  Giraffes!—a People
    Who live between the earth and skies,
    Each in his lone religious steeple,
    Keeping a light-house with his eyes.
