This chapter's epigraph comes from a famous poem by the English poet William Butler Yeats, who wrote "Ulysses" . In the poem, he says, "I am a poet, but I am not a poet; I am a messenger of God." In this passage, he is referring to the fact that he is a messenger sent by God to deliver a message to a messenger. The messenger is sent to deliver the message, and the messenger delivers it to the poet. The poet is shocked at the messenger's ability to deliver such a powerful message, but he does not deny it. He does not want the messenger to think that he has done anything wrong. He wants him to believe that the messenger has done nothing wrong, and that he himself is the true genius. He tells the messenger that the spirit tablet cannot even measure the spirit of the messenger, so the messenger must have done something wrong. When the messenger tries to deny it, the poet calls him a "genius" and a "real genius." The messenger feels humiliated, and he tells the poet to come with him to see him.
