one of my favorites
from Percy Bysshe Shelley’s Prometheus Unbound:
“
DEMOGORGON
If the abysm
Could vomit forth its secrets–but a voice
Is wanting, the deep truth is imageless;
For what would it avail to bid thee gaze
On the revolving world? What to bid speak
Fate, Time, Occasion, Chance and Change? To these
All things are subject but eternal Love.
“
