 1     I|    there's naught of which thou canst declare~ It lives disjoined
 2     I|        Hellenes.~ And thus thou canst remark that every act~ At
 3     I|      same;~ Nor, by true reason canst thou prove aught hides~
 4     I|         And more than this thou canst conceive of naught~ That
 5     I|        because~ The things thou canst not mark have boundary points,~
 6    II|         bright~ Of purple robe, canst thou then doubt that this~
 7    II|     since those themselves thou canst not see,~ Their motion also
 8    II|         At least so far as thou canst mark; but who~ Is there
 9    II|        born on earth.~ For thou canst say lightning's celestial
10    II|        thread by thread;~ Hence canst perceive the fragments die
11   III|        that such the fact~ Thou canst perceive, if thou attend,
12   III|       our frame. And thus~ This canst thou guarantee: soul's primal
13   III|         And obscene stench, how canst thou doubt but that~ The
14   III|        Stands - and before thou canst be going home~ Sated and
15    IV|       And so it haps, that thou canst sound perceive,~ Yet not
16    IV|      Thou well hast noted, thou canst render count~ Unto thyself
17    IV|        only what thou take thou canst~ Distribute well digested
18    IV|           From this thou easily canst understand:~ So far as one
19    IV| perceive at all?~ Yet know thou canst that, even in objects plain,~
20    IV|     freely-wandering Venus, or~ Canst lead elsewhere the tumults
21    IV|       through shut eyelids thou canst still take in -~ Uncounted
22    IV|       with tangled feet,~ Still canst thou scape the danger-lest
23    IV|         since ne'ertheless thou canst by thought~ Drag all the
24    IV|        its equal share; as thou canst mark, -~ Whether the breed
25     V|      quickened.~ Likewise, thou canst ne'er~ Believe the sacred
26     V|        really be,~ So that thou canst scarce nothing take or add.~
27    VI|       on all sides round:~ Then canst thou know their mighty masses,
28    VI|      their mighty masses, then~ Canst view their caverns, as if
29    VI|       and rumblings? And O how~ Canst thou believe he shoots at
