1 infant encoil’d inside a worm 2 The Throne of Mary throne of wisdom on which the babe sits he holds a little sign marked EGO 3 Pity a flying horse swoops down a rider scoops the babe up in his arms 4 Eve she gnaws the apple in the serpent’s mouth 5 Behold this Midnight Glory; Worlds, on Worlds. (Edward Young, Night Thoughts)
