"The Mundane Shell is a vast Concave Earth,
an immense Harden'd Shadow of all things upon our Vegetated Earth,
twenty-seven folds of Opaqueness,
And finishes where the lark mounts."
an immense Harden'd Shadow of all things upon our Vegetated Earth,
Enlarg'd into Dimension and deform'd into indefinite Space,
In Twenty-seven Heavens and all their Hells,
with Chaos And Ancient Night and Purgatory.
twenty-seven folds of Opaqueness,
And finishes where the lark mounts."
William Blake, Selection From Milton
