Side 378 - I fear, too early : for my mind misgives, Some consequence, yet hanging in the stars, Shall bitterly begin his fearful date With this night's revels...
Side 405 - Of these loose groves; rough as th' unpolish'd rocks. A hasty portion of prescribed sleep; Obedient slumbers, that can wake and weep, And sing, and sigh, and work, and sleep again; Still rolling a round sphere of still-returning pain.

A roof for when the slow dark hours begin. May not the darkness hide it from my face? You cannot miss that inn.
Side 311 - As in this world there are degrees of evils, So in this world there are degrees of devils.
Side 146 - I will be wise; but it was far from me. 24 That which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out? 25 I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly...
