THE LANDSCAPES of THE BATTLE OF THE SOMME
"The trees of the wood are very high in the wan signal beam, to whose slow gyrations their wounded boughs seem as malignant limbs manoevering for advantage.
The trees of the wood beware each other, and under each a man sitting, their seemly faces as carved in a sardonix stone.
As undiademed princes turn their graceful profiles in a hidden seal, so did these appear, under the changing light"
David Jones, "In Parenthesis"
