Стр. 245 - Said then the lost Archangel, 'this the seat That we must change for heav'n, this mournful gloom For that celestial light?
Стр. 96 - O, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth, That I am meek and gentle with these butchers; Thou art the ruins of the noblest man That ever lived in the tide of times.
