Of old men on winter evenings.”

Choruses from The Rock (1934)
Context: In spite of all the dishonour,

The broken faith in one place or another,
There was something left that was more than the tales
Of old men on winter evenings.

Little, Big: or, The Fairies' Parliament (1981)
Context: One winter night when he was a boy … he first saw a ring around the moon. He stared up at it, immense, icy, half as wide as the night sky, and grew certain that it could only mean the End of the World. He waited thrilled in that suburban yard for the still night to break apart in apocalypse, all the while knowing in his heart that it would not: that there is nothing in this world not proper to it and that it contains no such surprises.
