And *that* is the true common thread between Gerry's criticism of
Wolfe's works and this one.
That and the fruitlessness of the debate.
And of course *Gerry's* argument is based on the text, not metaphor or
conclusive leaps even though the sun is never named in the poem. So a
fundamental lack of self-awareness is also a common thread here.
However, *Morning* is named. Morning throws the stone at the stars. Why
is not Morning the hunter? Why is the hunter not Eos?
