Of Hartford in a Purple Light, line 3: “Bringing the lights of Norway and all that”
Cook calls this poem “an exuberant response to changing light of dawn over Hartford.” This poem charts the passing of the sun across the world and how it brings both masculine and feminine lights with it, including “the lights of Norway.”
