Eighteen                             Orpheus

 When they had reason to, the trees walked.  This may be myth or just the loose talk of some ancient trees. Orpheus, a magician and musician, journeyed on foot into the underworld to find his bride, Eurydice, stolen by jealous gods. He could not bring her back. And when he returned to the Earth, he walked through the mountains of Illirium to the cliffs by the Thracian seaside. Animals, stones, and trees followed him. His music moved them, so the story goes. All the legendary walkers – Dante, The Wandering Jew, (also known as Ahaeseurus, Issac Laequeder, Buttadeus - reportedly he was a shoemaker),  The Chronicler of the Cathedral Band – believed that walking is an act of imagination. And a responsibility.  “He was a witness, but he should not have been. Like you,” The Chronicler said, many times.  You walk, don’t you?
