What hence infers Lorenzo? Can it be?
Matter immortal? And shall spirit die?
Above the nobler, shall less noble rise?
Shall man alone, for whom all else revives,
No resurrection know? Shall man alone,

The bliss of being, or with previous pain
Deplore its period, by the spleen of Fate,
Severely doom'd Death's single unredeem'd?

Shall man alone, for whom all else revives,
No resurrection know? Shall man alone,
