| "Somewhere", said Father Vittorini,     |
| "did Blake not speak of the Machineries |
| of Joy? That is, did not God promote    |
| environments, then intimidate these     |
| Natures by provoking the existence of   |
| flesh, toy men and women, such as are   |
| we all? And thus happily sent forth, at |
| our best, with good grace and fine wit, |
| on calm noons, in fair climes, are we   |
| not God's Machineries of Joy?"          |
|                                         |
| "If Blake said that", said Father       |
| Brian, "he never lived in Dublin."      |
