    The whole earth, perpetually steeped in blood, is nothing but an immense altar on which every living thing must be sacrificed without end, without restraint, without respite until the consummation of the world, the extinction of evil, the death of death.
    Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)

    Now if thou wouldst, when all have given him over,
    From death to life thou mightst him yet recover.
    Michael Drayton (1563–1631)

    This death was his belief though death is a stone.
    This man loved earth, not heaven, enough to die.
