  1. A quotation from Christopher Marlowe

    CHORUS: Cut is the branch that might have grown full straight,
       And burnèd is Apollo’s laurel bough,
       That sometime grew within this learnèd man.
       Faustus is gone. Regard his hellish fall,
       Whose fiendful fortune may exhort the wise
       Only to wonder at unlawful things,
       Whose deepness doth entice such forward wits,
       To practise more than heavenly power permits.

    Christopher "Kit" Marlowe (1564-1593) English dramatist and poet
    The Tragicall History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus, Epilogue (1594; 1604 “A” text)

  9. A quotation from Christopher Marlowe

    FAUSTUS: No, Faustus, curse thyself, curse Lucifer,
       That hath deprived thee of the joys of heaven.
          (The clock striketh twelve.)
       O, it strikes, it strikes! Now, body, turn to air,
       Or Lucifer will bear thee quick to hell.
          (Thunder and lightning.)
       O soul, be changed into little water drops,
       And fall into the ocean, ne’er be found!
       My God, my God, look not so fierce on me!
          (Enter Devils.)
       Adders, and serpents, let me breathe a while!
       Ugly hell, gape not. Come not Lucifer!
       I’ll burn my books! Ah, Mephistophilis!
          (Exeunt Devils with Faustus.)

  13. A quotation from Kit Marlowe

    FAUSTUS. Ah, Faustus,
       Now hast thou but one bare hour to live,
       And then thou must be damn’d perpetually!
       Stand still, you ever-moving Spheres of Heaven,
       That time may cease, and midnight never come;
       Fair Nature’s eye, rise, rise again, and make
       Perpetual day; or let this hour be but
       A year, a month, a week, a natural day,
       That Faustus may repent and save his soul!

  29. A quotation from Christopher Marlowe

    FAUSTUS: Was this the face that launch’d a thousand ships,
       And burnt the topless towers of Ilium —
       Sweet Helen, make me immortal with a kiss. —
          [They kiss]
       Her lips suck forth my soul: see, where it flies! —
       Come, Helen, come, give me my soul again.
          [They kiss again]
       Here will I dwell, for heaven is in these lips,
       And all is dross that is not Helena.

       Her lips suck forth my soul: see, where it flies! —
       Come, Helen, come, give me my soul again.
          [They kiss again]
       Here will I dwell, for heaven is in these lips,
       And all is dross that is not Helena.

    The Tragicall History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus, Act 5, sc. 1 (sc. 13), l. 1358ff (1594; 1604 “A” text)

  31. A quotation from Christopher Marlowe

    FAUSTUS: Was this the face that launch’d a thousand ships,
       And burnt the topless towers of Ilium —
       Sweet Helen, make me immortal with a kiss. —
          [They kiss]
       Her lips suck forth my soul: see, where it flies! —
       Come, Helen, come, give me my soul again.
          [They kiss again]
       Here will I dwell, for heaven is in these lips,
       And all is dross that is not Helena.

  38. A quotation from Kit Marlowe

    MEPHISTOPHILES: Within the bowels of these elements,
       Where we are tortur’d and remain for ever:
       Hell hath no limits, nor is circumscrib’d
       In one self place; for where we are is hell,
       And where hell is, there must we ever be:
       And, to conclude, when all the world dissolves,
       And every creature shall be purified,
       All places shall be hell that are not heaven.

    FAUSTUS: Faustus, begin thine incantations
       And try if devils will obey thy hest,
       Seeing thou hast prayed and sacrificed to them.
       Within this circle is Jehovah’s name,
       Forward, and backward, anagrammatised:
       Th’abbreviated names of holy saints,
       Figures of every adjunct to the heavens,
       And characters of signs, and erring stars,
       By which the spirits are enforced to rise.
       Then fear not, Faustus, to be resolute
       And try the utmost magic can perform.
     
    [Thunder]
     
    Sint mihi Dei Acherontis propitii! Valeat numen triplex Jehovae! Ignei aerii, aquatani spiritus, salvete! Orientis princeps Beelzebub, inferni ardentis monarcha, et Demigorgon, propitiamus vos, ut appareat, et surgat Mephistophilis Dragon, quod tumeraris; per Jehovam, gehennam, et consecratam aquam quam nunc spargo; signumque crucis quod nunc facio, et per vota nostra, ipse nunc surgat nobis dicatus Mephistophilis!

    Philosophy is odious and obscure;
    Both law and physic are for petty wits;
    Divinity is basest of the three,
    Unpleasant, harsh, contemptible, and vile:
    ‘Tis magic, magic, that hath ravish’d me.
