“Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
To an inordinate race?”

“Sleep takes off the costume of circumstance, arms us with terrible freedom, so that every will rushes to a deed.”
