A soul enslaved so many ways?
With bolts of bones, that fettered stands
In feet; and manacled in hands:
Here blinded with an eye; and there
Deaf with the drumming of an ear;
A soul hung up, as ‘twere, in chains
Of nerves, and arteries, and veins;”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
“Restore location
To them now blinded quite
By the grave’s after-light....”
