– Enjoy listening to the “The Cave” by Mumford & Sons. The lines “So come out of your cave walking on your hands / And see the world hanging upside down / You can understand dependence / When you know the maker’s hand” appear to be inspired by G.K. Chesterton’s biography on St. Francis of Assisi. As Chesterton wrote, “He [Francis] looked at the world as differently from other men as if he had come out of that dark hole walking on his hands.”
