Pop culture references
The verse "A candle throws its light into the darkness In a nasty world so shines a good deed" demonstrates the importance of Shakespeare in Harper's references; it comes from the famous play The Merchant of Venice: "How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a good deed in a naughty world."[2]
