[6] So in Shelley’s lyrical drama of “Prometheus Unbound:”—
“Mercury (addressing Prometheus.) Once more answer me:
Thou knowest not the period of Jove’s power?
Prometheus. I know but this, that it must come.
Mercury.Alas!
Thou canst not count thy years to come of pain.
Prometheus. They last while Jove must reign; nor more nor less
Or I desire or fear.”
