All sorts of holidays going on, between Easter, Passover, and most importantly National Poetry Month, as hilzoy keeps reminding us. In celebration, here is an excerpt from the works of the immortal Bard; in particular, "A tedious brief scene of young Pyramus And his love Thisbe; very tragical mirth," from A Midsummer Night's Dream (Act 5, Scene 1).
O grim-look'd night! O night with hue so black!
Celebrate National Poetry Month with a nod to the immortal Bard and the joy of poetry amid the Easter and Passover holidays.
