The Hammers
In this chapter titled The Hammers, the opening scene offers a quiet juxtaposition—an English estate slowly overtaken by time, where roses bloom beside crumbling walls and silence speaks louder than memory.

The Fool Errant
In "A Dome of Many-Coloured Glass," the narrative begins with a series of lyrical exclamations that celebrate the beauty and transience of the natural world. Each stanza is an invocation of being—in turn—a flower basking in the relentless sun, a butterfly reposing serenely on a bloom, a cloud sailing across the sky, or a wave crashing onto the shore. These vivid scenes are suffused with a sense of joy and an acute awareness of nature's cyclic life, from the ephemeral existence of flowers and insects to…-
