Subject: RE: British supernatural folk-songs...?
Where does that phrase "pull down thy pride" in Two Magicians come from?
One of Ezra Pound's Cantos uses "pull down thy vanity" as a refrain. I assume both are alluding to the same thing, maybe a Biblical or classical source?
BTW this thread is mess of duplicates. Maybe a thread combination that went wrong?
