    was the line of a lover’s shoulder,

    the sudden leap and swift thunder
    of mountain boulders, his laugh.”

    “But let my due feet never fail
    To walk the studious cloister’s pale,
    And love the high embowed roof,
    With antic pillars massy proof,
    And storied windows richly dight,
    Casting a dim, religious light.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
