I'd clean fish up there and all.

I seem to partake its rapid transformations; the active enchantment reaches my dust, and I dilate and conspire with the morning wind.

• O execrable son! so to aspire
  Above his brethren, to himself assuming
  Authority usurped, from God not given.

  Dominion absolute; that right we hold
  By his donation; but man over men
  He made not lord; such title to himself
  Reserving, human left from human free.
