Does the Devil ever struggle to be good again, or if so is he not a devil?
What difference does it make after all? Anonymity in the world of men is better than fame in heaven, for what's heaven? What's Earth? All in the mind.

Canterbury Tales by Chaucer. In Ye Olde English, it's harder to translate than ancient Greek. *NM*

The Canterbury Tales are not Old English. They are Middle English.
