Crossed
 
  Ankles crossed as holy statues sit.
            —Edwin Arnold		  1
Like two doomed ships that pass in storm
We had crossed each other’s way.
            —Oscar Wilde		  2
                Intricately crossed,
Like leafless underboughs, ’mid some thick grove.
            —William Wordsworth		  3
