    It gets to seem as if way back in the Garden of Eden after the Fall, Adam and Eve had begged the Lord to forgive them and He, in his boundless exasperation, had said, “All right, then. Stay. Stay in the Garden. Get civilized. Procreate. Muck it up.” And they did.

    A packet of worm-seed, a garden of spent tissues.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Down from the waist they are centaurs,
    Though women all above;
    But to the girdle do the gods inherit,
    Beneath is all the fiends’: there’s hell, there’s darkness,
    There is the sulphurous pit, burning, scalding,
    Stench, consumption.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
