It’s been shamefully long – again. Making excuses is never good but I
just started a summer job. I also try to write my master’s thesis as much as
possible (which isn’t very much right now; I don’t work that many hours a week
but there is quite a lot of preparing to do at home before each day). I’m also
stuck with Faerie Queene. I’ve only
read a bit more than 100 pages and am completely in love with it. Whether I’ll
ever finish it or not I know not but it’s a wonderful book, as difficult as it
is. The language is lovely and the Spenserian stanza really sinks into your
spine after a while. I hope some day I’ll be finished with it – not anytime
soon, though.
Those three or four days are here though passing already – those days
when apple trees and cherries are in their full blossom. There is no fairer
thing in our spring if not the fresh and verdant mornings.
