Writing by hand… does it ring a bell? Does it ring and ring? (Image by Lynda Barry) How soft the music of those village bells, Falling at interval upon the ear In cadence sweet; now dying all away, Now pealing loud again, and louder still, Clear and sonorous, as the gale comes on! With easy force it opens all the cells Where Memory slept. — William Cowper- Task (bk. VI, l. 6) Source … and other source
