blacksquirrel: (Potions Teacher's Pet)
"They also serve who only stand and wait."

"The last line of the poem "On His Blindness," by John Milton. The poet reflects that he has a place in God’s world despite his disability."


It occurs to me that it would be eerie and touching in a kind of disturbing way for Snape to send Sirius a letter by throwing it behind the veil with only the words "They also serve" as a way of apologizing for egging him on in book 5.
