We speak in what we bury, and hear in unearthing.

An event imagined
Is an event imaged necessarily any less real than a thing remembered? Memory is never as precise as we imagine; imagination is never as precise as we remember. Precision would take away an essential—a freedom, a power, a fecundity. But note: Memory and imagination may each take patient waiting, a turning away for a season, before it delivers viable offspring.
