Weddings

“Marriage is a duel to the death

which no man should decline”

— G.K. Chesterton

“Wedded” 1882 Lord Frederic Leighton

…”Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor.

For if one falls down, his companion can lift him up;

but pity the one who falls without another to help him up!…

– Ecclesiastes 4:9

Abstract: In the past, electrical heat tracing has been thought of as a minor addition to plant utilities. Today, it is recognized as a critical subsystem to be monitored and controlled. A marriage between process, mechanical, and electrical engineers must take place to ensure that optimum economic results are produced. The Internet, expert systems, and falling costs of instrumentation will all contribute to more reliable control systems and improved monitoring systems. There is a harmonization between Europe and North America that should facilitate design and installation using common components. The future holds many opportunities to optimize the design.

Evensong “And So It Goes”

The Ballad of Barbara Allen

In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along

[Verse 2]

I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense

[Chorus]

And every time I’ve held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose

[Verse 3]

But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break

[Chorus]

And this is why my eyes are closed
It’s just as well for all I’ve seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you’re the only one who knows

[Verse 4]

So I would choose to be with you
That’s if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break

[Outro]

And so it goes, and so it goes
And you’re the only one who knows

“You shall above all things be glad and young…”

Weddings

…For if you’re young, whatever life you wear

it will become you; and if you are glad

whatever’s living will yourself become.

Girlboys may nothing more than boygirls need:

i can entirely her only love

whose any mystery makes every man’s

flesh put space on; and his mind take off time

that you should ever think, may god forbid

and (in his mercy) your true lover spare:

for that way knowledge lies, the foetal grave

called progress, and negation’s dead undoom,

I’d rather learn from one bird how to sing

than teach ten thousand starts how not to dance

— e.e. cummings

Sonnet 116

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds.

Or bends with the remover to remove.

O no! It is an ever fixed mark

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark.

Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.

Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

Within his bending sickle’s compass come;

Love alters with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.

If this be error and upon me proved,

I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

— William Shakespeare

Entstehung der High Society

“Being an artist means not numbering and counting, but ripening like a tree, which doesn’t force its sap, and stands confidently in the storms of spring, not afraid that afterward summer may not come. It does come. But it comes only to those who are patient, who are there as if eternity lay before them, so unconcernedly silent and vast.”

— Rainer Maria Rilke
