         Go ye to ye documents, note
there, how little ye know.
Stories only scratch the skin, a kingfisher
flickering, tilted
toward the banks. For an argument, to achieve
an effect. What is this white surface of
recycled newsprint, scratched
by a scion, a scion of certain Puritans?
(Endicott's farm was adjacent to Zaccheus Gould's.)
