1. Who is unrivalled?
2. Who is welcomed by a rain-soaked wild animal?
(Clue: both are well-known figures, the former of whom is a novelist and the latter a poet and critic, in the history of English literature.)
'The Year's at the Spring' from Pippa Passes
Robert Browning [1812-1889]
The year's at the spring
And day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hill-side's dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn:
God's in
Sumum Bonum
Robert Browning [1812-1889]
All the breath and the bloom of the year in the bag of one bee:

殷其雷，
在南山之阳。
何斯违斯？
莫敢或遑。
振振君子，
归哉归哉！
殷其雷，
在南山之侧。
何斯违斯？
莫敢遑息。
振振君子，
归哉归哉！
殷其雷，
在南山之下。
何斯违斯？
莫或遑处。
振振君子，
归哉归哉！
《殷其雷》，讨债也。每章首二句以雷之无定在兴避债者之不遑宁居。三、四句拟避债者与人问答。别人问：你怎么一忽儿东，一忽儿西，总是马不停蹄呀？避债者答：不敢久待啊，不敢长留啊。末二句为债主声讨之言：你要是够男人、够爷们，就给我回来，还钱！

逆，encounter
逆，甲金文从倒人从止或从彳，表示来者或迎接。《说文》：“逆，迎也。”是字的本义。《左传·隐公四年》：“卫人逆公子晋于邢。”《国语·齐语》：“桓公亲逆之于郊。”又指迎战、迎敌。《管子·大匡》：“（齐桓公）兴师伐鲁，造於长勺，鲁庄公兴师逆之，大败之。”逆与顺相对，有倒、抵触、违背等义。郝懿行《尔雅義疏》：“逆对顺言，故有拒意；逆以迎言，故有逢遇之意。”诸义实相通。
Encounter来自古法语

General Review of Sex Situation
Dorothy Parker
Woman wants monogamy;
Man delights in novelty.
Love is woman’s moon and sun;
Man has other forms of fun.
Woman lives but in her lord;

Heat
Hilda Doolittle
O wind, rend open the heat,
Cut apart the heat,
Rend it to tatters.
Fruit cannot drop

To ——
Shelley
Music, when soft voices die,
Vibrates in the memory.--
Odours, when sweet violets sicken,
Live within the sense they quicken.--
Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
Are heaped for the beloved's bed--
And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,
Love itself shall slumber on.
赠——
雪莱
当轻柔的歌喉消逝，
音乐，回荡在记忆里。——
当芬芳的紫罗兰凋谢，
香气，存于变灵的嗅觉。——
当玫瑰花死去，花瓣
堆积成床，出于爱恋——
所以，当你离去，爱情
将枕着我的思念入梦。

《小爱神》之七十五
埃德蒙·斯宾塞
一天，我在沙滩上写下她的名字，
可海浪打来，把它冲得只字不留：
