REX ERNEST WARNER
English poet, translator and novelist (1905 - 1986)

It would be difficult to overestimate the importance to me of the
events which had taken place previous to the hour (it was shortly
after ten o'clock in the morning) when I was lying in the marsh
near the small pond at the bottom of Gurney's meadow, my face in
the mud and the black mud beginning to ooze through the spaces
between the fingers of my outstretched hands, drunk, but not
blindly so, for I seemed only to have lost the use of my limbs.
