    • In a preposterous coat, like a beadle’s, with cuffs and flaps exaggerated to an unspeakable extent; in an immense waistcoat, knee-breeches, buckled shoes, and a mad cocked hat;
    • ‘Here is your letter,’ said Mr Gradgrind. ‘All necessary means will be provided for you. Atone, by repentance and better conduct, for the shocking action you have committed, and the dreadful consequences to which it has led. Give me your hand, my poor boy, and may God forgive you as I do!’

      The culprit was moved to a few abject tears by these words and their pathetic tone. But, when Louisa opened her arms, he repulsed her afresh.

    • 795-816 Eve shows new reverence
      for her new god--the Tree of Knowledge.

      817-833 Eve debates whether to share
      her knowledge and happiness with Adam or to keep the power herself. She
      thinks that keeping the knowledge to herself will render her Adam's equal.
      Yet if she should die, she couldn't bear the thought of Adam with another
      woman--she would prefer that they both die.

      834-855 In the meantime, Adam has
      made Eve a garland of flowers. He has sensed the danger.

      856-885 Eve meets Adam by the Tree
      of Knowledge. Excitedly she tells him what she did.

      886-920 Adam's blood runs cold as
      he hears of her trespass. Speechless, he drops the garland on the ground
      and its roses fade and lose their petals. He says that Eve is "defaced,
      deflowered, and now to death devote" (901). Adam declares that Satan has
      ruined him with her; since they're one flesh, he would die without her.

      921-959 Adam conjectures that they
      probably won't die, since their destruction would mean victory for Satan.
      Adam consents to a love triangle with death if they do in fact encounter
      the same doom.

    • Now to th' ascent of that steep savage Hill

      Satan had journied on, pensive and slow;

      But further way found none, so thick entwin'd,


      As one continu'd brake, the undergrowth [ 175 ]

      Of shrubs and tangling bushes had perplext

      All path of Man or Beast that past that way:

      One Gate there only was, and that look'd East

      On th' other side: which when th' arch-fellon saw


      Due entrance he disdaind, and in contempt, [ 180 ]

      At one slight bound high over leap'd all bound

      Of Hill or highest Wall, and sheer within

      Lights on his feet. As when a prowling Wolfe,

      Whom hunger drives to seek new haunt for prey,


      Watching where Shepherds pen thir Flocks at eeve [ 185 ]

      In hurdl'd Cotes amid the field secure,

      Leaps o're the fence with ease into the Fould:

      Or as a Thief bent to unhoord the cash

      Of some rich Burgher, whose substantial dores,


      Cross-barrd and bolted fast, fear no assault, [ 190 ]

      In at the window climbs, or o're the tiles;

      So clomb this first grand Thief into Gods Fould:

      So since into his Church lewd Hirelings climbe.
  • Milton: Paradise Lost - Book 2 on 2007-11-16
    • As when farr off at Sea a Fleet descri'd

      Hangs in the Clouds, by Æquinoctial Winds

      Close sailing from Bengala, or the Iles

      Of Ternate and Tidore, whence Merchants bring


      Thir spicie Drugs: they on the Trading Flood [ 640 ]

      Through the wide Ethiopian to the Cape

      Ply stemming nightly toward the Pole. So seem'd

      Farr off the flying Fiend: at last appeer

      Hell bounds high reaching to the horrid Roof,


      And thrice threefold the Gates; three folds were Brass, [ 645 ]

      Three Iron, three of Adamantine Rock,

      Impenetrable, impal'd with circling fire,

      Yet unconsum'd.
    • one seem'd Woman to the waste, and fair, [ 650 ]

      But ended foul in many a scaly fould

      Voluminous and vast, a Serpent arm'd

      With mortal sting
