Glaring

Oh!—fruit loved of boyhood!—the old days recalling,
When wood-grapes were purpling and brown nuts were falling!

When wild, ugly faces we carved in its skin,
Glaring out through the dark with a candle within!

John Greenleaf Whittier

Not only a talented artist and entrepreneur, but a well-read person, too.

Huh. Smarty-pants.
