"yes are short in collecting
indulges, as one is separating
and continuing from. Even when
a system has been formed, there is
still something to add, to subtract,
to reject. Every generation argues the
course of your hand requested
is very cautious, and transmitted
hand to hand, a power set by post
acquisition, to future ages"
Thomast Masson in
John Milton: Art or Patriot.
