From Conversation At Midnight by Edna St Vincent Millay (Anselmo, the priest, after playing some Bach, has left the group to go home. His dear friend, compatriot, but agnostic, Ricardo remarks): Whatever the case for God, the splendour of Man Cannot be questioned. This Music, this impeccable, projected By peccant men, who even as they laboured sank and died Irrefutable witness to that splendour stands It speaks more loud Than the waves that batter The wild bluf: There is no God, But it does not matter Man is enough. Sorry I messed up the first try .... Edmund
