Paradise Lost

Of Man's first disobedience, and the fruitOf that forbidden tree whose mortal tasteBrought death into the World, and all our woe, With loss of Eden, till one greater ManRestore us, and regain the blissful seat, Sing, Heavenly Muse, that, on the secret topOf Oreb, or of Sinai, didst inspireThat shepherd who first taught the chosen seedIn the beginning how the heavens and earthRose out of Chaos: or, if Sion hillDelight thee more, and Siloa's brook that flowedFast by the oracle of God, I thenceInvoke thy aid to my adventurous song, That with no middle flight intends to soarAbove th' Aonian mount, while it pursuesThings unattempted yet in prose or rhyme. And chiefly thou, O Spirit, that dost preferBefore all temples th' upright heart and pure, Instruct me, for thou know'st; thou from the firstWast present, and, with mighty wings outspread, Dove-like sat'st brooding on the vast Abyss, And mad'st it pregnant: what in me is darkIllumine, what is low raise and support; That, to the height of this great argument, I may assert Eternal Providence, And justify the ways of God
