���Bast��� ��� |
She had green eyes, that excellent seer, |
--William Rose Benét Moons of Grandeur 1920 Seward Grant & Dickinson |
I reread that poem in fond memory of Tennie Yoder, M.A., (1900-1998) friend, teacher, patroness of animals. Thinking of Bast, I like to take a quick break to look at the ancient Egyptian cat sculpture -- in a real museum in Berlin -- that sits in the same pose as the cat hieroglyphs above.
