EPIGRAPH: So, dare it! Your inheritance, whay you've earned and learned,
The narratives of all your father's voices teaching you,
All law and custom, names of all the ancient gods,
Forget these things courageously; like newborn babes
Your eyes will open to the godliness of nature...

EPIGRAPH: If I came to you,
O woods of my youth, could you
Promise me peace once again?
