Counselor Ayres' Memorial

Counselor Ayres' Memorial

After the first few seconds of inspection, there is what I thought of her person. I did not immediately think in prose, but in verse as it happened, in a line of Shelley, whom I had been rereading at home, as I mentioned above, a verse from one of his stanzas of 1821:

I can give not what men call love.

Written by Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis // Published in Berkeley by University of California Press in 1982 // First published in 1972
