Trid in sharp tribulation, and refind

Through Heavns wide bounds; from them I will not hide

This other servd but to eternize woe; [ 60 ]

My judgments, how with Mankind I proceed,

Obtain, all thy request was my Decree:

Of Amarantin Shade, Fountain or Spring,

Wakt in the renovatihttps://read.99csw.comon of the just, [ 65 ]

But longer in that Paradise to dwell,

Th Almighty thus pronouncd his sovran Will.

And took thir Seats; till from his Throne supream

When God descended, and perhaps once more [ 75 ]

The Law I gave to Nature him forbids:

No gross, no unha九九藏書rmoneous mixture foule,

He ended, and the Son gave signal high

In fellowships of joy: the Sons of Light [ 80 ]

As how with peccant Angels late they saw; [ 70 ]

All thy request for Man, accepted Son,

His Trumpet, heard in Oreb since perhaps

For dissolution wrought by Sin, that first [ 55 ]

To sound at general Doom. Th Angelic blast

Created him endowd, with Happiness

And Immortalitie: that fondly lost,

But let us call to Synod all the Blest

Corrupted. I at first with two fair gifts

Those pure immortal https://read.99csw.comElements that know [ 50 ]

Distemperd all things, and of incorrupt

Till I provided Death; so Death becomes

His final remedie, and after Life

By the waters of Life, where ere they sate

Hasted, resorting to the Summons high,

Resignes him up with Heavn and Earth renewd.

By Faith and faithfｒead.9９ｃsw.ｃｏｍul works, to second Life,

Filld all the Regions: from thir blissful Bowrs

Eject him tainted now, and purge him off

To whom the Father, without Cloud, serene. [ 45 ]

As a distemper, gross to aire as gross,

And mortal food, as may dispose him best

And in thir state, though firm, stood more confirmd.
