All things are
sold: the very light of heaven is venal; earth's unsparing
gifts of love, the smallest and most despicable things that
lurk in the abysses of the deep, all objects of our life,
even life itself, and the poor pittance which the laws allow
of liberty, the fellowship of man, those duties which his
heart of human love should urge him to perform
instinctively, are bought and sold as in a public mart of
not disguising selfishness, that sets on each its price, the
stamp-mark of her reign.
-- Percy Bysshe Shelley
1792-1822, British Poet
