Author of a varied array of exquisite lyrics that blend Cavalier grace with Metaphysical wit and complexity, Marvell turned, first, into a panegyrist for the Lord Protector and his regime and then into an increasingly bitter satirist and polemicist, attacking the royal court and the established church in both prose and verse. It is as if the most delicate and elusive of butterflies somehow metamorphosed into a caterpillar.

    what it is!
    May the forza be with you

    Plus peanuts, plus ice cream, plus peaches, plus salty biscuits, plus .....whatever.

    Lol. At tv it's a profile of the diver.

    I'm with Costa Rica but if Netherlands wins I have no problem. Used to hate this team until this spring but I appreciated their fair play in our group of qualifications.

    Costa Rica not showing any signs of collapsing. The Dutch seem to lack a cutting edge tonight, considering all the attacking talent they have.
