From Walter de la Mare
Knight of the Holy Ghost, he goes his way Wisdom his motley, Truth his loving jest; The mills of Satan keep his lance in play, Pity and innocence his heart at rest.
It's not every day that someone quotes Walter de la Mare! One of my all time favorite poems (penned by de la Mare) is "The Listeners."
