JM: (according to Field) in the Russian
Parnassus "Pushkin is a rainbow over all the
land"?
It is the opening line of a poem by VN (the second one in the
two-poem cycle "On the Death of A. Blok," 1921):
Пушкин - радуга по всей земле.
Parnassus is not mentioned in this (or the preceding)
poem.
Btw., a quiz: "Armless dwarf in a tail-coat." Who is
it? (no googling, please)
