...But of these sophisms and elenchs of merchandise I skill not...
Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.

Jeffers, Meditation On Saviors

Weren't any armadillos in the Lone Star state when the Battle of the Alamo was fought in 1836. Rare is the Texan who knows that. The armadillos were on their way, though. They got as far north as the Rio Grande Valley in the 1840s. And kept on coming.
