 1     I|    first opposing dared~ Raise mortal eyes that terror to withstand,~
 2     I| annihilation.~ For, were aught mortal in its every part,~ Before
 3     I|         Have eat all shapes of mortal stock away:~ But be it the
 4     I|       to be~ Of birth and body mortal, thus, throughout,~ The
 5     I|    thing will be~ At bottom as mortal as whate'er we mark~ To
 6    II|     yet since these things are mortal all -~ The pliant mortal,
 7    II|       mortal all -~ The pliant mortal, with a body soft;~ The
 8    II|        body soft;~ The brittle mortal, with a crumbling frame;~
 9    II|        fashioned soft and of a mortal frame.~ Yet be't that these
10    II|     all~ One and the same with mortal. Grant they could,~ Yet
11    II|       same in kind~ As a whole mortal creature, even they~ Must
12    II|     less, and theirs a body of mortal birth~ No less, than every
13    II|  firmament above let down~ The mortal generations to the fields;~
14   III|      forevermore.~ THE SOUL IS MORTAL~ ~ Now come: that thou mayst
15   III|   souls of all that live~ Have mortal birth and death, I will
16   III|    Teaching the same to be but mortal, think~ Thereby I'm speaking
17   III|        is forewarning to~ That mortal lives the mind. For proper
18   III|     the body too:~ Each is but mortal, since alike is each~ Hewn
19   III|          We needs must hold it mortal. But perchance~ If thou
20   III|         Still must the soul as mortal be confessed;~ Nor aught
21   III|       to confess~ The soul but mortal, since, so altered now~
22   III|    Immortals waiting for their mortal limbs~ In numbers innumerable,
23   III|       frame.~ For, verily, the mortal to conjoin~ With the eternal,
24   III|  ill-assorted,~ Than something mortal in a union joined~ With
25   III|        Since nature of mind is mortal evermore.~ And just as in
26   III|        immortal hath ta'en the mortal life.~ ~ Hence, where thou
