Excerpt from Amphora: A Collection of Prose and Verse
The shape of the jar was as classical as that of many a vase from the antique. Antiquity, indeed, possessed an abundance of precisely such jars. Furthermore, when you held the jar in the sun, a spot of insufferable radiance came in the middle of its cheek, like a very laugh of light. Then it contained honey - a thing which strikes the dullest imaginations with a sense of sweetness and the flowers; and in addition to the word "honey" outside, was the word "Sicilian" - a very musical and reminiscent word.
