Explore "Peter Bell the Third" by Percy Bysshe Shelley on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Lo. Peter in Hell's Grosvenor Square, / A footman in the Devil's service! / And the misjudging world would swear / That every man in service there / To virtue would prefer vice.
But Peter, though now damned, was not / What Peter was before damnation. / Men oftentimes prepare a lot / Which ere it finds them, is not what / Suits with their genuine station.
