Laugh if you will,
My queen, but let me be a woman still.
You fairies love where love is wise and just;
We mortal women love because we must.

Gawayne and the Green Knight, Canto 2 “Elfinhart” (1903)

I am a weak, ephemeral creature made of mud and dream. But I feel all the powers of the universe whirling within me.
