"A leafless tree arches in the light of a single
Lanthorn set above a taut gathering of card-players,
their secret breathing visible for all to try to read,
and Wigs, white as the snow on the Roofslates, nodding
in and out of the shadows." (M&D, Ch. 3, p. 20)
Cf., yet again ...
The apparition of these faces in the crowd:
Petals on a wet, black bough.
Ezra Pound, "In the Station of the Metro" (1913)...
