109: Take but degree away, untune that string,
110: And hark what discord follows. Each thing [meets]
111: In mere oppugnancy: the bounded waters
112: Should lift their bosoms higher than the shores,
113: And make a sop of all this solid globe;
114: Strength should be lord of imbecility,
115: And the rude son should strike his father dead;
116: Force should be right, or rather, right and wrong
117: (Between whose endless jar justice resides)
118: Should lose their names, and so should justice too!
119: Then every thing include itself in power,
120: Power into will, will into appetite,
121: And appetite, an universal wolf
122: (So doubly seconded with will and power),
123: Must make per force an universal prey,
124: And last eat up himself.
