Context: Enforcing equality to compensate for the monstrous unfairness of nature destroys liberty.

“Thou poisonest the fair design
Of nature, with unfair device.”
The Dark Angel (1895)
Context: p>The ardour of red flame is thine,
And thine the steely soul of ice:
Thou poisonest the fair design
Of nature, with unfair device.Apples of ashes, golden bright;
Waters of bitterness, how sweet!
O banquet of a foul delight,
Prepared by thee, dark Paraclete!</p
