Gustave Doré

 
"Him the Almighty Power
Hurled headlong flaming
from the ethereal sky"
(I. 44, 45)  		"Forthwith upright he
rears from off the pool
His mighty stature"
(I. 221, 222)
       
"So numberless were those
bad Angels,
Hovering on wing, under the
cope of Hell"
(I. 344, 345)  		"Before the gates there sat
On either side a formidable shape"
(II. 648, 649)
