Initiation
Let him continue in the ground, he who is now dead, where all things hurry— a strange company who seem to speak. Let the pursers and clerks make up their accounts, the parson rest, and the great night come to sit with night.
Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Saturday 2 February 1660/61.
