... Reading A Sentimental Journey look around

When you have finished, for Tristram Shandy, to see

If it is standing there, it should be, stronger

And more profound and theretofore hidden as Santa Maria

Maggiore

May be hidden by similar churches inside Rome. One sidewalk

May hide another, as when you’re asleep there, and

One song may hide another song; a pounding upstairs

Hide the beating of drums. One friend may hide another, you sit

at the foot of a tree

With one and when you get up to leave there is another

Whom you’d have preferred to talk to all along.
