In which our heroine attempts to read the Western Canon without adult supervision.
Our Heroine
Using Poetry For My Own Advantage and the Astonishment of Others
In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.
So twice five miles of fertile ground
With walls and towers were girdled round:
And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.
~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge
