259 psl. - How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, who didst rise in the morning; how art thou fallen to the earth, that didst wound the nations? And thou saidst in thy heart: I will ascend into heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, I will sit in the mountain of the covenant, in the sides of the north. I will ascend above the height of the clouds, I will be like the most High. But yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, into the depth of the pit.

13 psl. - Right-minded, happy-minded, righteous man, True lover of his country and his kind ; In knowledge and in inexhaustive stores Of native genius rich ; philosopher, Poet, and sage.

437 psl. - ... that shining skin of pearl; while from His bristled back two dragon wings did sprout. Alas ! the proud Archangel, whom but now All Angels honored here, hath changed his shape Into a hideous medley of seven beasts, As outwardly appears : A lion proud ; A greedy, gluttonous swine ; a slothful ass ; A fierce rhinoceros, with rage inflamed; An ape, in every part obscene and vile, By nature lewd and most lascivious; A dragon, full of envy ; and a wolf Of sordid avarice.
437 psl. - Even as bright day to gloomy night is changed. Whene'er the sun forgets his golden glow. So in his downward fall his beauty turned To something monstrous and most horrible: Into a brutish snout his face, that shone So glorious; his teeth into large fangs. Sharpened for gnawing steel; his hands and feet Into four various claws; into a hide Of black that shining skin of pearl; while from His bristled back two dragon wings did sprout. Alas! the proud Archangel, whom but now All Angels honored here,...
329 psl. - Now swear I by my crown, upon this chance To venture all, to raise my seat amid The firmament, the spheres, the splendor of The stars above. The Heaven of Heavens shall then My palace be, the rainbow be my throne, The starry vast, my court; while, down beneath, The Earth shall be my footstool and support. I shall, then swiftly drawn through air and light, High-seated on a chariot of cloud, With lightning stroke and thunder grind to dust Whate'er above, around, below, doth us Oppose, were it God's...
188 psl. - With lightning-stroke and thunder, grind to dust Whate'er above, around, below doth us Oppose, were it God's Marshal grand himself; Yea, e'er we yield, these empyrean vaults, Proud in their towering masonry, shall burst, With all their airy arches, and dissolve Before our eyes; this huge and joint-racked earth JOOST VAN DEN VONDEL Like a misshapen monster lifeless lie; This wondrous universe to chaos fall, And to its primal desolation change. Who dares, who dares defy great Lucifer?
