No arts, no letters, no society, and which is worst of all, continual fear and danger of violent death, and the life of man solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.
The solitary monk who shook the world
From pagan slumber, when the gospel trump
Thunder'd its challenge from his dauntless lips
In peals of truth.
As if the man had fixed his face,
In many a solitary place,
Against the wind and open sky!
A solitary shriek, the bubbling cry
Of some strong swimmer in his agony.
Woes cluster. Rare are solitary woes;
They love a train, they tread each other's heel.
