Listen in the reader

The tongue of England, that which myriads Have spoken and will speak, were paralyz'd 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 God's word; the fall of Angels, and the doom First of immortal, then of mortal, Man. Glory! be glory! not to me, to God.
