CXXIII.

All that the mind would shrink from of excesses-- All that the body perpetrates of bad; All that we read--hear--dream, of man's distresses-- All that the Devil would do if run stark mad; All that defies the worst which pen expresses,-- All by which Hell is peopled, or as sad As Hell--mere mortals who their power abuse-- Was here (as heretofore and since) let loose.
