    "News at Eleven: Against what he William Empson took to be the prevailing modern orthodoxy of Symbolist poetry--'the main rule is that a poet must never say what he wants to say directly . . . he must invent a way of hinting at it by metaphors, which are then called images'--he promoted what he called 'argufying' in poetry, 'the kind of arguing we do in ordinary life, usually to get our own way'."
