april's art

This morning, at our poetry session at St. Xavier's, we studied some of Shakespeare's sonnets. Today is the anniversary of his death in 1616. He was 52 when he died. I read that the stone that covers his tomb is inscribed with this curse.

"Good friend for Jesus sake forbear
To dig the dust enclosed here!
Blest be the man that spares these stones,
And curst be he that moves my bones. "
