8660532 Votaries of the Weed No 43 (colour litho) by Clarke, Joseph Clayton (Kyd) (1856-1937); Private Collection; (add.info.: Votaries of the Weed, No 43. When "the poet's eye in a fine frenzy rolling" is accompanied-as it usually is-by the inhalation of good, honest tobacco, look out for something great! Some happy thought, some noble phrase, some daring fantasy that may yet go ringing down the corridors of Time, and owe at least a modicum of its inspiration to the direct influence of the divine herb.
