"For in and out, above, about, below, 'Tis nothing but a Magic Shadow-show, Play'd in a Box whose Candle is the Sun, Round which we Phantom Figures come and go."
-
"I sent my Soul through the Invisible, Some letter of that After-life spell, And by and by my Soul returned to me, And answered I Myself am Heaven and Hell."
-
"And that inverted Bowl they call the Sky, Whereunder crawling coop'd we live and die, Lift not your hands to It for help – for It As impotently moves as you or I."
-
"The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it."
-
"Into this Universe, and Why not knowing Nor Whence, like Water, willy-nilly flowing; And out of it, as Wind along the Waste, I know not Wither, willy-nilly blowing."
