  • on Enoch by Jones Very, on February 15, 2007
    Actually poor Jones here was the Alpha Omega of the Trancendental movement, Emerson published and edited his first book, but soon tired of him.
    As Jones believed he was God, Emerson thought him mad, and Jones asked everyone to follow him,
    like apositles, and none would.
    The spirit left his body after a year and he tried to light the fire again to no avail.
    And died as a madman in his Salem home...
