Well have ye judgd, well ended loe, [ 390 ]Synod of Gods, and like to what ye are,
Great things resolvd; which from the lowest deep
Will once more lift us up, in spight of Fate,
Neerer our a Seat; perhaps in view
O藏书网f those bright fines, wheh neighb Arms [ 395 ]
And opportune excursion we may ce
Re-enter Heavn; or else in some milde Zone
Dwell not unvisited of Heavns fair Light
Secure, and at the brightning Orient beam
Purge off this gloom; the soft delicious Air, [ 400 ]
To heal the scarr of these corrosive Fires
Shall breath her balme. But first whom shall we send
In search of this new world, whom shall we find
Suffit? who shall tempt with wandri
The dark unbottomd infinite Abyss [ 405 ]
And through the palpable obscure find out
His uncouth way, or spread his aerie flight
Upborn with iigable wings
Over the vast abrupt, ere he arrive

Seisd us, though undismaid: long is the way
And hard, that out of Hell leads up to light;
Our prison strong, this huge vex of Fire,
