<p>Thanks, xiggi. Yes, the use of “intoxicated/sober” is part of what distinguishes Pope from ordinary mortals. Here is another, that I think is approximate-Pope:</p>
<p>Nature and Nature’s laws lay hid in night.
God said, “Let Newton be!” and all was light.</p>
<p>(Corrections to this are also invited–no need to bring up the one that mentions Einstein.)</p>
