 Satan exalted sat, by merit raised / To that bad eminence.

 Servant of God, well done, well hast thou fought The better fight, who single hast maintain'd Against revolted multitudes the Cause Of Truth, in word mightier than they in Arms; And for the testimony of Truth hast borne Universal reproach, far worse

 Servant of God, well done; well hast thou fought The better fight

 She fair, divinely fair, fit love for Gods.

 Since first this subject for heroic song / Pleased me long choosing, and beginning late.

 Sleep on, Blest pair; and O yet happiest if ye seek No happier state, and know to know no more

 So buxom, blithe, and debonair.

 So dear I love him that with him all deaths I could endure, without him live no life.

 So farewell Hope, and with Hope farewell Fear, Farewell Remorse: all Good to me is lost; Evil be thou my Good

 So sinks the day-star in the ocean bed, / And yet anon repairs his drooping head, / And tricks his beams, and with new-spangled ore, / Flames in the forehead of the morning sky.

 So when the sun in bed, / Curtained with cloudy red, / Pillows his chin upon an orient wave.

 Sober, steadfast, and demure.

 Some natural tears they dropped, but wiped them soon; / The world was all before them, where to choose / Their place of rest, and Providence their guide: / They hand in hand with wandering steps and slow / Through Eden took their solitary way.

 Sometime let gorgeous Tragedy / In sceptred pall come sweeping by, / Presenting Thebes, or Pelops' line, / Or the tale of Troy divine.

 Squat like a toad, close at the ear of Eve.
