Milton: Book 1
“…and each mortal brain is walld and moated round
Within.”
“His spectre slept, his Shadow woke; when one sleeps th’other wakes.
But Milton entering my Foot…”
“But I knew not that it was Milton, for man cannot know
What passes in his members till periods of Space & Time
Reveal the secrets of Eternity.

Skies,
How great thy use. how great thy blessing; every thing
that lives,
Lives not alone. nor for itself: fear not and I will call
The weak worm from its lowly bed, and thou shalt hear its voice.”
