Closely stood together in a ring round the dome were Plato,
Aristotle, Sophocles, and Shakespeare; the literature of Rome,
Greece, China, India, Persia. One leaf of poetry was pressed
flat against another leaf, one burnished letter laid smooth
against another in a density of meaning, a conglomeration of
loveliness."</p>

gave the outside passengers an opportunity to stare into each
other's faces. Yet few took advantage of it. Each had his own
business to think of. Each had his past shut in him like the
leaves of a book known to him by heart; and his friends could
only read the title, James Spalding, or Charles Budgeon, and
the passengers going the opposite way could read nothing at
all—save "a man with a red moustache," "a young man in grey
smoking a pipe." The October sunlight rested upon all these
men and women sitting immobile;"<br>

<p>I come down on the side of those of us who
are delighted to see VW in a doodle that
will be seen, even if for a few seconds, by
millions of people. As for the doodle
itself, I like the color of the leaves and
Virginia's blouse. It's subtle and haunting
as a shade. Like Diana Swanson, I also
thought about <i>The Years</i>, especially
one introduction to an autumn when leaves
were being violently blown about by heavy
winds.</p>
