Ohimè.
Tonight, I was finishing Lorenzo: D.H. Lawrence and the Women who Loved Him by Emily Hahn and noted the following passage on pg. 248 ...
"Back in the Villa Bernarda, Frieda was not as quiet and friendly as Lawrence seemed to think. She was happy to be with the girls, but when she got a card from Lawrence that might well have been an olive branch -- a picture of Jonah threatened by a whale, with the message, "Who is going to swallow whom?" -- she may have smiled, but she did not relax. She was still angry."
P.S. speaking of literary references, concerning Ringleader, has anyone remarked Goethe's famous exclamation upon entering Rome: "Nun bin ich endlich geboren!" ("At last I am born!")?
I've used both the search function on this and the main site, in addition to a key-words search on Google, and found no mention of this.
Be gentle.
EDIT: thought I would give the primary source of the quote: Not I But the Wind... by Frieda Lawrence, pg. 181
Now, given A Boy In The Bush is the title of a book by D.H.L., what are the odds of the above being, indeed, the primary source of Mozzer's lyric?
