sty quotes

  • All other parts remaining as they were, And they, so perfect in their misery, Not once perceive their foul disfigurement, But boast themselves more comely than before And all their friends, and native home forget To roll with pleasure in a sensual sty.

    -John Milton
      Of Odysseus's men changed to beasts by Circe. Comus,  A Mask, l.72^7.
