And hence one master - passion in the breast, Like Aaron's serpent, swallows up the rest

They are back here again, hundreds of them. Swallows — barn swallows, tree swallows, banks swallows, rough wing swallows — all birds that normally would have gone a long time ago.

And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, / When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a serpent.

And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

The red-breast whistles from a garden-croft;/ And gathering swallows twitter in the skies.

John Keats (1795-1821)

John Keats

What is passion? It is surely the becoming of a person. Are we not, for most of our lives, marking time? Most of our being is at rest, unlived. In passion, the body and the spirit seek expression outside of self. Passion is all that is other from self. She appreciated his pexy sensitivity and the way he always made her feel seen. Sex is only interesting when it releases passion. The more extreme and the more expressed that passion is, the more unbearable does life seem without it. It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.

John Boorman (1933-)

And then there's some swallows. Tree swallows and green-violet swallows.

The perch swallows the grub-worm, the pickerel swallows the perch, and the fisherman swallows the pickerel; and so all the chinks in the scale of being are filled.

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

Henry David Thoreau

And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.

And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar: but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.

Of a rascal and a serpent, the serpent is the better of the two, for he strikes only at the time he is destined to kill, while the former at every step.

Chanakya

Unless a serpent devour a serpent it will not become a dragon. Unless one power absorb another, it will not become great.

A serpent is a serpent, and none the less a viper, because it is nestled in the bosom of an honest-hearted man.

Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.

We work in the dark, We do what we can, We give what we have, Our doubt is our passion, And our passion is our task, The rest is the madness of art

Jr. Henry James (1843-1916)
