Abash'd The Devil Stood, And

Solitude Sometimes Is Best Society.

Deep Vers'd In Books, And Shallow In Himself.

Flowers Of All Hue, And Without Thorn The Rose.

Contemplation Is Wisdom's Best Nurse.

Meanwhile The Adversary Of God And Man, Satan With Thoughts Inflamed Of Highest Design, Puts On Swift Wings, And Towards The Gates Of Hell Explores His Solitary Flight.
