Question
According to its author, a line of poetry about this phenomenon quotes from a translation by Henry Clarke Warren. In another poem by that author, a “dove descending breaks the air / With” this phenomenon “of incandescent terror.” That author included a line about this phenomenon between two quotations from St. Augustine’s Confessions: “To Carthage then I came” and “O Lord Thou pluckest me out.” After a two-line quotation from Julian of Norwich, the declaration that all will be well when this phenomenon “and the rose are one” closes “Little Gidding.” A section titled for this phenomenon includes the lines, “Twit twit twit / Jug jug jug jug jug jug,” and is directly followed by “Death by Water” and “What the Thunder Said.” For 10 points, the third section of T. S. Eliot’s The Waste Land is a Buddha-inspired sermon about what phenomenon? ■END■
