Alexander Pope
Know then, unnumber'd Spirits round thee fly, The light Militia of the lower sky.
|
Hesiod
Aerial spirits, by great Jove design'd To be on earth the guardians of mankind: Invisible to mortal eyes they go, And mark our actions, good or bad, below: The immortal spies with watchful care preside, And thrice ten thousand round their charges glide: They can reward with glory or with gold, A power they by Divine permission hold.
|
John Milton
Millions of spiritual creatures walk the earth Unseen, both when we wake, and when we sleep.
|
Joseph Addison
Why, a spirit is such a little, little thing, that I have heard man, who was a great scholar, say that he'll dance ye a hornpipe upon the point of a needle.
|
Ralph Cudworth
Some who are far from atheists, may make themselves merry with that conceit of thousands of spirits dancing at once upon a needle's point.
|
William de Morgan
A Corpse or a Ghost-- . . . I'd sooner be one or t'other, square and fair, than a Ghost in a Corpse, which is my feelins at present.
