This is what I get for reading the posts in chronological order from the earliest.
I think I would have to agree with you on the Poem in the Stone thing. It's supremely ridiculous. However, I have to say that I also just got a kick every time Radcliffe described how he would moon about after Emily, sighing and leaning out of windows and such. I pretty much picture Valancourt as the effeminate son in Monty Python and the Holy Grail who's always breaking into song.
I hope I never ridicule what is wise or good. Follies and nonsense, whims and inconsistencies do divert me, I own, and I laugh at them whenever I can.
