And the more murderous brain
Of Man, still redder Nero that conceived the death
Of his mother Earth, and tore
Her womb, to know the place where he was conceived.”

With his martial cloak around him.”

Crawls like a yellow butterfly,
And, here and there, a passer-by
Shows like a little restless midge.”
