They are all, like Ray Milland, "The Man with the X-Ray Eyes" --
these Huguenot heroes:
Marot, Duplessis-Mornay, de Beze, de Coligny, de Rohan,
d'Aubigne.
That includes their English co-religionists, such as
Whitgift and Abbott and Grindal.
These are eyes of defeat, eyes that convey an end to
self-reference, eyes of a markedly ego-less state.
You simply have to undergo defeat, have to, in order to, well,
become a little child.
Old ancient wisdom.
