"We love fog because it shifts old anomalies into the elements surrounding them.”
- Eavan Boland.
"The rain continued. It was a hard rain, a perpetual rain, a (shivering) and (streaming) rain; it was a mizzle, a downpour, a fountain, a whipping at the eyes, an undertow at the ankles; it was a rain to drown all rains and the memory of rains.”

The following elegiac inscription can be found on a gravestone in the graveyard of St Michael and All Angel's, Haworth, West Yorkshire, UK
Time was I stood as though dost now,
And viewed the dead as though dost me;
Ere long thou'lt stand as low as I,
And others stand and look o'er thee.
Fairly typical of a Yorkshire outlook on life. And death 😀 We have a fair few like it
