On W. H. Auden's deep facial wrinkles:

Were a fly to attempt to cross it, it would break its leg.


A. L. Rowse diary, 30 May 1960


Were a fly to attempt to cross it, it would break its leg.

Were a fly to attempt to cross it, it would break its leg.

Were a fly to attempt to cross it, it would break its leg.

Were a fly to attempt to cross it, it would break its leg.
