The pillared firmament is rottenness,

And earth's base built on stubble. But come, let's on!

Against the opposing will and arm of Heaven 600

May never this just sword be lifted up;

But for that damned magician, let him be girt

With all the grisly legiöns that troop

Under the sooty flag of Acheron,

Harpies and Hydras, or all the monstrous forms 605

'Twixt Africa and Ind, I'll find him out,

And force him to return his purchase back,
