    O For that warning voice, which he who saw

    Th Apocalyps, heard cry in Heaven aloud,

    Thehe Dragon, put to sed rout,

    Came furious down to be revengd on men,

    Wo to the inhabitants oh! that now, [ 5 ]

    While time was, our first-Parents had bin warnd

    The ing of thir secret foe, and scapd

    Haply so scapd his mortal snare; for now

    Satan, now first inflamd with <u>藏书网</u>rage, came down,

    The Tempter ere th Accuser of man-kind, [ 10 ]

    To wre i frail man his loss

    Of that first Battel, and his flight to Hell:

    Yet not rejoyg in his speed, though bold,

    Far off and fearless, no<big>.</big>r with cause to boast,

    Begins his dire attempt, whiigh the birth [ 15 ]

    Now rowling, boiles in his tumultuous brest,

    And like a devillish Engine back recoiles

    Upon himself; horror and doubt distract

    His troubld thoughts, and from the bottom stirr

    The Hell within him, for within him Hell [ 20 ]

    He brings, and round about him, nor from Hell

    Oep no more then from himself  fly

    By ge of plaow sce wakes despair

    That slumberd, wakes the bitter memorie

    Of what he was, what is, and what must be [ 25 ]

    Worse; of worse deeds worse sufferings must ensue.

    Sometimes towards Eden whiow in his view

    Lay pleasant, his grievd look he fixes sad,

    Sometimes towards Heavn and the full-blazing Sun,

    Whiow sat high in his Meridian Towre: [ 30 ]

    Then much revolving, thus in sighs began.

    O thou that with surpassing Glory d,

    Lookst from thy sole Dominion like the God

    Of this new World; at whose sight all the Starrs

    Hide thir diminisht heads; to thee I call, [ 35 ]

    But with no friendly voice, and add thy name

    O Sun, to tell thee how I hate thy beams

    That bring to my remembrance from what state

    I fell, how glorious o<q>..</q>nce above thy Spheare;

    Till Pride and worse Ambition threw me down [ 40 ]

    Warring in Heavn against Heavns matchless King:

    Ah wherefore! he deservd no such return

    From me, whom he created what I was

    In that bright eminence, and with his good

    Upbraided none; nor was his service hard. [ 45 ]

    What could be less then to afford him praise,

    The easiest repence, and pay him thanks,

    How due! yet all his good provd ill in me,

    And wrought but malice; lifted up so high

    I sdeind subje, and thought oep higher [ 50 ]

    Would <bdo>藏书网</bdo>set me highest, and in a moment quit

    The debt immense of endless gratitude,

    So burtheill paying, still to ow;

    Fetful what from him I still receivd,

    And uood not that a grateful mind [ 55 ]

    By owing owes not, but still pays, at once

    Ied and dischargd; what burden then?
