We understand our dear colleague, Jean O’Grady — associate editor of the Collected Works of Northrop Frye and biographer of Margaret Addison — suffered a bicycle accident over the weekend. We wish her a full and speedy recovery.
Wishing Jean O’Grady Well
A wreck? Oh, hell!
Dear Jean, Get well!
Of all projects
Your grand index
Is what we need.
So we now plead
With all due speed
For you to heal.
Our commonweal
Is what’s at stake.
For goodness sake,
Quickly repair:
Our sober prayer.
