" Spirits, when they please, 

 Can either sex assume, or both ; so soft 

 And uncompounded is their essence pure, 

 Not tied or manacled with joint or limb, 

 Nor founded on the brittle strength of bones, 

 Like cumbrous flesh ; but, in what shape they choose, 

 Dilated or condensed, bright or obscure, 

 Can execute their aery purposes, 

 And works of love or enmity fulfil."
