larryhammer: topless woman lying prone with a poem by Sappho painted on her back, label: "Greek poetry is sexy" (classics)
Wednesday? Ah, yes -- reading meme day.

It's been pretty much entirely poetry, largely from the first Oxford Book of English Verse (1250-1900) and A Victorian Anthology (1837-1895) ed. by Edmund Stedman, plus all but the last canto of The Lady of the Lake by Sir Walter Scott. Which is still a good read in a Highland romance sort of way.

Subject quote from "Loch Coruisk," Robert Williams Buchanan.
