Rebecca West Quotes

He Is Looking Down On The Two Crystal Balls That The Old Man's Foul, Strong Hands Have Rolled Across To Him. In One He Sees Margaret, Not In Her Raincoat And Her Nodding Plumes, But As She Is Transfigured In The Light Of Eternity. Long He Looks There; Then Drops A Glance To The Other, Just Long Enough To See That In Its Depths Kitty And I Walk In Bright Dresses Through Our Glowing Gardens. We Had Suffered No Transfiguration, For We Are As We Are, And There Is Nothing More To Us. The Whole Truth About Us Lies In Our Material Seeming. He Sighs A Deep Sigh Of Delight And Puts Out His Hand To The Ball Where Margaret Shines. His Sleeve Catches The Other One And Sends It Down To Crash In A Thousand Pieces On The Floor. The Old Man's Smile Continues To Be Lewd And Benevolent; He Is Still Not More Interested In Me Than In The Bare-armed Woman. Chris Is Wholly Inclosed In His Intentness On His Chosen Crystal. No One Weeps For This Shattering Of Our World.
