Summer Solstice 2022

Today marks the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year and the first day of Summer! While some in our office consider this a sad day as it means the days will only get shorter from here on out, we’re choosing to think positively and celebrate the vibrant blooms of summer that can be found all around us. Here we have The Rose-Bud, the Rose and the Thorn by Scottish poet Robert Burns (1759-1796).

Published in 1994 by the Incline Press in an edition of 250, the book features rose printers’ ornaments, an engraving of a linnet resting in a briar by Ann Tout, and hand marbled cover paper by Ann Muir in “the colours of the budding rose.” Our copy is signed by Graham Moss, the proprietor of the Incline Press, and was a gift of our friend, Jerry Buff.

The poems by Robert Burns all feature the rose as a key image. My favorite is “My Love Is Like a Red, Red Rose":

My luve is like a red, red rose, That’s newly sprung in June; My Luve is like a melodie, That’s sweetly play’d in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonie lass, So deep in luve am I; And I will luve thee still, my Dear, Till a’ the seas gang dry.

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my Dear, And the rocks melt wi’ the sun; And I will luve thee still, my Dear, While the sands ‘o’ life shall run.

And fare-thee-well, my only Luve! And fare-thee-well, a while! And I will come again, my Luve, Tho’ ‘twere ten thousand mile!

I especially like the part about rocks melting in the sun. That’s pretty metal for an 18th century love poem!

Have a lovely solstice and try not to think too hard about the days getting shorter!

Gather ye rose-buds while ye may, Old Time is still a-flying; And this same flower that smiles today, tomorrow will be dying.

perhaps unpopular but while I do agree the EXU interlude likely killed some of the momentum, I also...don't mind that the party didn't talk much this episode? I feel like the start of the episode created an opening that not everyone took, though we did have some good moments, but also, for all I adore episode 2x30 and 1x69 re: wake of a character's death, and i do think 3x92's first half was very strong, it feels very right and in-character that Ashton isn't ready to talk about it (and that Dorian isn't really talking yet either).

#i feel like i'd just be rehashing a very old discussion but like. this just isn't a party that talks much #and we can talk about root cause and perhaps mourn what the bells hells campaign could have been; but that campaign doesn't exist #this is c3 and it is what it is and honestly i'm liking this arc not just for the wildemount stuff but for fearne and dorian and aeor #cr spoilers #i also feel like complaining that past characters show up is kind of pointless given that orym and laudna existed from the start.#especially since a lot of the complaining about this LOVED keyleth when she was the Laudna Resurrection ticket #like. feels a little have your cake and eat it too; idk i feel people like me who complained a LOT earlier and know c3 isn't their fave #are having a much better time. adjust expectations bc there were a bunch of as the naddpod crew says roses and buds
