  • There to dwell
    In adamantine chains and penal fire
    Who durst defy the omnipotent to arms
    Nine times the space that measures day and night
    Rolling in the fiery gulf
    Confounded though immortal, but his doom
    Reserved him to more wrath, for now the thought
    Both of lost happiness and lasting pain
    Torments him; round he throws his baleful eyes
    That witnessed huge affliction and dismay
    Mixed with obdurate pride and steadfast hate
    At once as far as angels ken he views
    The dismal situation waste and wild
    A dungeon horrible, on all sides round
    Regions of sorrow
    Doleful shades, where peace and rest can never dwell
    Hope never comes that comes to all
    But torture without end still urges
    As one great furnace flamed
    Yet from those flames, no light
    But rather, darkness visible Writer/s: Benjamin Walter David Lovett, Edward James Milton Dwane, Marcus Oliver Johnstone Mumford, Winston Aubrey Aladar Marshall
