Excerpt from Neighbors Henceforth
Suddenly, in the green field by which we were pass ing on that long straight road, an Object broke my reverie. It was a charred, half-roasted aeroplane, lying there like a great dead black bat. It was a symbol, like Medusa's head. The Huns had never been able to walk as near Paris as this, but they had sailed here through the air, dropping ames and death during four hideous years. To my fancy now, as we went along that straight highway, the trees with their blossoms, the hills with their snow, the at country veiled with the tender heralding hues of spring, all nature, seemed to wear the look Of the English and French faces.
