Plays are written for the theatre, but the audience often leaves the best and stays for the worst. To make the play perfect the audience must see what the poet sees. The crowd tramples on the wildflowers in the forest to find a restful spot for feast and dancing. The poet kneels at the shrine of the same wild flowers, gently and reverently feasts the soul and not the senses, and departs with lingering and loving farewells.
