    Sihrough experience of this great event

    In Arms not worse, in fht much advanct,

    We may with more successful hope resolve [ 120 ]

    To wage by force uile eternal Warr

    Irrecileable, trand Foe,

    Who now triumphs, and in th excess of joy

    Sning holds the Tyranny of Heavn.

    So spake th Apostate Ahough in pain, [ 125 ]

    Vaunting aloud, but rackt with deep despare:

    And him thus answerd soon his bold peer.

    O Prince, O Chief of many Throned Powers,

    That led th imbattelld Seraphim to Warr

    Uhy duct, and in dreadful deeds [ 130 ]

    Fearless, endangerd Heavual King;

    And put to proof his high Supremacy,

    Whether upheld by strength, or ce, or Fate,

    Too well I see and rue the dire event,

    That with sad overthrow and foul defeat [ 135 ]

    Hath lost us Heavn, and all this mighty Host

    In horrible destru laid thus low,

    As far as Gods and Heavnly Essences

    perish: for the mind and spirit remains

    Invincible, and vigour soourns, [ 140 ]

    Though all lory extinct, and happy state

    Here swallowd up in endless misery.

    But what if he our querour, (whom I now

    Of force believe Almighty, sino less

    Then such could hav orepowrd such force as ours) [ 145 ]

    Have left us this our spirit and strengt?99lｉb?re

    Strongly to suffer and support our pains,

    That we may so suffice his vengeful ire,

    Or do him mightier service as his thralls

    By right of Warr, what ere his business be [ 150 ]

    Here in the heart of Hell to work in Fire,

    Or do his Errands in the gloomy Deep;

    What  it then avail though yet we feel

    Strength undiminisht, or eternal being

    To undergo eternal punishment? [ 155 ]

    Whereto with speedy words th Arch-fiend replyd.
