"The Archangel loved heights."

[Mark Kohut]

opening line. Michael it is.

Seems a Harvard scholar-critic of the time, one Barrett Wendell, is the one who
recommended that this self-published work be republished by the Association of
Architects (and Sumpin Else). Old Henry was agin it.

Barrett was famous in his time and, coincidentally, I had an English
teacher whom
I shudda kept in touch with with the same name over 50 years later. I wonder.
