Shakespeare And Milton

By Walter Savage Landor

The tongue of England, that which myriads Have spoken and will speak, were paralyzd Hereafter, but two mighty men stand forth Above the flight of ages, two alone; One crying out, All nations spoke through me. The other: True; and through this trumpet burst Gods word; the fall of Angels, and the doom First of immortal, then of mortal, Man. Glory! be glory! not to me, to God.
