Summary
Somehow I managed to miss the MFMM 2018 Year of Quote Challenge for the month of April. It may have had something to do with being distracted while admiring the flora and fauna of Australia with lovely friends.
Thankfully our mistress of the spreadsheets, Firesign, has provided us with December amnesty , so I can
slide this in just a little late.
The quote I chose is from the bard himself:
SONNET 27
Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed,
I hope you enjoy this little fluff and nonsense.
I wish many New Years blessings to you all.
The dear repose for limbs with travel tired;
But then begins a journey in my head,
To work my mind, when body's work's expired:
For then my thoughts (from far where I abide)
Intend a zealous pilgrimage to thee,
And keep my drooping eyelids open wide,
Looking on darkness which the blind do see:
Save that my soul's imaginary sight
Presents thy shadow to my sightless view,
Which, like a jewel hung in ghastly night,
Makes black night beauteous and her old face new.
Lo, thus, by day my limbs, by night my mind,
For thee, and for myself, no quiet find. -

Summary
“I was his first arrest, didya know that?”
“I did,” Phryne said. “But I’m afraid I don’t know the specifics. I’ve never been able to pry that particular story out of him.”
Elsie laughed. “Well, no wonder. Our poor Jackie boy don’t come off so well.”
“Oh?” Phryne leaned forward, her curiosity most definitely piqued. She crossed her legs and rested her chin on her hand, propped up at the knee. “Do tell.”
Inspired by the December Quote Challenge.
