Road to Earth

"This means that when the causeway was formed, Death bound also the elments on either side of the road into a mass of rock, vast and immovable, so that the storms of Chaos, however might rage around it, could not break over the path."

Himes, John Andrew. A Study of Milton's Paradise Lost. Folcroft, PA: Folcroft Library Editions, 1976. Print.
