![]() ![]() Some Elizabethan house with its scrap of earlier fourteenth-century building, and its later degradations of Queen Anne and Silly Billy and Victoria, marring but not destroying it, in an old village once a clearing amid the sandy woodlands of Sussex. I see some beautiful and noble building new made, as it were for the occasion, as clearly as if I were awake not vaguely or absurdly, as often happens in dreams, but with all the detail clear and reasonable. This dream is as it were a present of an architectural peep-show. Sometimes I am rewarded for fretting myself so much about present matters by a quite unasked-for pleasant dream. ILL WOULD CHANGE BE AT WHILES WERE IT NOT FOR THE CHANGE BEYOND THE CHANGE HARD IT IS FOR THE OLD WORLD TO SEE THE NEW ![]() THEY HEAR TIDINGS OF BATTLE AND MAKE THEM READY ![]() William Morris A Dream of John Ball and, A King's Lesson ![]()
