Where Satan now prevailes, a Monument

Against the day of Battel, to a Field, [ 275 ]

So saying, with delight he snuffd the smell

Of ravenous Fowl, though many a League remote,

But that success attends him; if mishap,

In other Worlds, and happier Seat provides

Leads thee, I shall not lag behinde, nor erre

For death,九_九_藏_書 the following day, in bloodie fight.

The way, thou leading, such a sent I draw

With sent of living Carcasses designd

O Son, why sit we here each other viewing [ 235 ]

Of carnage, prey innumerable, and taste

Goe whither Fate and inclination strong [ 265 ]

Nor shall I to the work thou enterprisest [ 270 ]

W九九藏書ings growing, and Dominion givn me large

Ere this he had returnd, with fury drivn [ 240 ]

By secretest conveyance. Thou my Shade

Idlely, while Satan our great Author thrives

Can fit his punishment, or their revenge.

Easing thir passage hence, for intercourse, [ 260 ]

Methinks I feel new strength within me riseread.99csw.com,

Where Armies lie encampt, come flying, lurd

Stay his return perhaps over this Gulfe

Over this Maine from Hell to that new World

Of mortal change on Earth. As when a flock

Of merit high to all th infernal Host,

Be wanting, but afford thee equal aid,

Beyond this Deep; whatever drawes me on, [ 245 ]

Impassable九-九-藏-書, Impervious, let us try

Adventrous work, yet to thy power and mine [ 255 ]

Whom thus the meager Shadow answerd soon.

Or sympathie, or som connatural force

The savour of Death from all things there that live:

For us his ofspring deare? It cannot be

Inseparable must with mee along: [ 250 ]

By his Avengers, since no place 九九藏書like this

Nor can I miss the way, so strongly drawn

But least the difficultie of passing back

Or transmigration, as thir lot shall lead.

With secret amity things of like kinde

For Death from Sin no power can separate.

Not unagreeable, to found a path

By this new felt attraction and instinct.

Powerful at greatest distance to unite
