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.
