John Milton Quotes

I hear the far-off curfew sound, / Over some wide-watered shore, / Swinging slow with sullen roar.

No nightly trance or breathud spell, / Inspires the pale-eyed priest from the prophetic cell. - John Milton

Yet from those flames / No light, but rather darkness visible / Served only to discover sights of woe, / Regions of sorrow, doleful shades where peace / And rest can never dwell, hope never comes / That comes to all. - John Milton

Nothing is here for tears, nothing to wail / Or knock the breast, no weakness, no contempt,/ Dispraise, or blame; nothing but well and fair,/ And what may quiet us in a death so noble. - John Milton
