第 139 頁 - Scorn! would the angels laugh, to mark A bright soul driven, Fiend-goaded, down the endless dark. From hope and heaven! Let not the land once proud of him Insult him now, Nor brand with deeper shame his dim, Dishonored brow.
第 167 頁 - This thought might lead me through the world's vain mask Content though blind, had I no better guide.
