65 psl. - The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest. There shall the great owl make her nest, and lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow : there shall the vultures also be gathered, every one with her mate.
64 psl. - And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch, It shall not be quenched night nor day ; the smoke thereof shall go up forever : from generation to generation it shall lie waste ; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.

And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the Lord : and he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the Plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the land went up as the smoke of a furnace.
1 psl. - Old men, and beldames, in the streets Do prophesy upon it dangerously : Young Arthur's death is common in their mouths : And when they talk of him, they shake their heads, And whisper one another in the ear ; And he that speaks doth gripe the hearer's wrist ; While he that hears makes fearful action, With wrinkled brows, with nods, with rolling eyes.
