Lost is my soul, and faded The light of life that braided Its comet tresses into golden fire, Fade, fade, the phantoms of desire ! Speed, speed the song of love upon the living lyre! Lo! I abide not, and my lover's glory Abides not: in the swaying of those tides Gathers beneath some mighty promontory One mightier wave…

Or again, 'He thought he saw a banker's clerk descending from a bus. He looked again, and saw it was a hippopotamus.' Everyone who has done any scientific investigation knows painfully how every obser…

But it is possible to indicate (in general terms expressed with the greatest caution) the 'sort' of thing that is likely to be bad for you.
