“The place itself, and ne'er a good word spoke of it,
You shiver when you even make a joke of it.”
R. A. Lafferty (1914–2002) American writer
On Hellpepper Planet, Ch. 7
Space Chantey (1968)
Context: p>The place itself, and ne'er a good word spoke of it,
You shiver when you even make a joke of it.Though some go cocky, gaily in hand-basket there,
The most fare sadly in a clammy casket there…Undying pain and gaping loss, no doubt of it.
A wide way leading in and no way out of it! But none have told the blackest horror shrouded there —
Tall teeming terror‚ but it sure is crowded there.</p
Jane Austen book Sense and Sensibility
Variant: Where so many hours have been spent in convincing myself that I am right, is there not some reason to fear I may be wrong?
