If all the world Should in a pet of temp'rance, feed on pulse, Drink the clear stream, and nothing wear but frieze, Th' All-giver would be unthank'd, would be unprais'd.
John Milton (1760). “Paradise Regain'd ... To which is added Samson Agonistes and Poems upon Several Occasions, with a Tractate of Education. [With engraved plates.]”, p.206
