Satan

"Lucifer stood before him a second ime. But He came not, as when at Matilda's summons He borrowed the Seraph's form to deceive Ambrosio. He appeared in all that ugliness, which since his fall from heavan had been his portion : His blasted limbs still bore marks of the Almighty's thunder : A swarthy darkness spread itself over his gigantic form : His hands and feet were armed with long Talons : Fury glared in his eyes, which might have struck the bravest heart with terror..." (Lewis, 433)

"'I have him then in my power! This model of piety! This being without reproach! This Mortal who placed his puny virtues on a level with those of Angels. He is mine! Irrevocably, eternally mine! companions of my sufferings! Denizens of hell! How grateful will be my present!'" (Lewis, 439)
