Evil news rides post, while good news bates

Taste this, and be henceforth among the Gods thyself a Goddess.

To chronicle the wars of kites and crows, fighting in the air.

Storied of old in high immortal verse / Of dire chimeras and enchanted isles, / And rifted rocks whose entrance leads to Hell.

Good, the more communicated, more abundant grows.

Yet from those flames / No light, but rather darkness visible / Served only to discover sights of woe, / Regions of sorrow, doleful shades where peace / And rest can never dwell, hope never comes / That comes to all.

With thee conversing I forget all time.

To many a youth and many a maid, / Dancing in the chequered shade.

Thousands at his bidding speed, And post o'er land and ocean without rest; They also serve who only stand and wait

Though we take from a covetous man all his treasure, he has yet one jewel left; you cannot bereave him of his covetousness.

Assuredly we bring not innocence not the world, we bring impurity much rather: that which purifies us is trial, and trial is by what is contrary.

Fame is no plant that grows on mortal soil.

Berommelse

O fairest flower, no sooner blown but blasted, / Soft silken primrose fading timelessly.

Dark with excessive bright.

O fairest of creation! last and best / Of all God's works! Creature in whom excelled / Whatever can to sight or thought be formed, / Holy, divine, good, amiable, or sweet!
