FDV: "the bride of Tristis Tristissimus. But she might just as well have carried a daisy's grace to Florida. For the Mooks was not amooksed and the Gripes was painfully oblivious. Night to dusk, the shades gathered along the brightening little river bans and it was as gloomy as gloaming could be in the west of all peacable wolds. The Moose had eyes but he could not hear. The Grapes had ears but he would but ill see. And he ceased. And he ceased. And it was ever so dark of both of them. Then there came down to the one bank a woman of no appearance and she gathered up moose where he was spread and bore him away to her invisible cottage for he was the holy sacred spit of a bishop's apron. And there came down to the other bank another woman [...] (still we are told that she is comely) and, for he was as like it as blow it to a halpenny bank, she plucked down the grapes and carried away with her to her little grey home"

FDV2: "the bride of Tristis Tristissimus. But she might just as well have carried a daisy's grace to Florida. For the Mooks was not amooksed and the Gripes was painfully obliviscent. You see, my dears, they were menner. Dusk to dusk, the shades gathered along the brightening river banks and it was as gloomy as gloaming could be in the west of all peacable wolds. The Moose had eyes yet he would not all hear. The Grapes had ears yet he could but ill see. And he ceased. And he ceased. And it was ever so dusky of them both But one thought of all {how moose mooch} he would say the next [...] {on the morrow} and the other of all the scrapes he would be creeped out of. So that the tears of night began to fall for the tired ones were weeping as we weep now with them. Then there came down to the one bank a woman of no appearance (I believe she was a Black) and she gathered up moose where he was spread and carried him away to her invisible cottage for he was the holy sacred spit of a bushop's apron. And there came down to the other bank another woman [...] (still we are told that she is comely) and, for he was as like it as blow it to a halpenny bank, she plucked away the grapes and carried it {him} away with her to her unseen"
