Excerpt from Questions on the English Language Set at the Matriculation Examinations of the University of London, 1858-1889
The secret of the abyss to Spy. He passed the flaming bounds of place and time, The living throne, the sapphire blaze, Where angels tremble while they gaze, He saw but, blasted with excess of light, Closed his eyes in endless night.
