Auden wrote these lines almost sixty years ago. Some day they may make
sense to somebody, somewhere.

Accurate scholarship can
Unearth the whole offence
From Luther until now
That has driven a culture mad,
Find what occurred at Linz,
What huge imago made
A psychopathic god:
I and the public know
What all school children learn,
Those to whom evil is done
Do evil in return.

Meanwhile, the world is as it used to be. May my dead rest in peace
with yours, oblivious to our competetive excuses.

Mike
