Mov'd on, with difficulty and labour hee;
Strange alteration! Sin and Death amain
Pav'd after him a broad and beat'n way
Tamely endur'd a Bridge of wondrous length
Of this frail World; by which the Spirits perverse
To tempt or punish mortals, except whom
But now at last the sacred.html">sacred influence
Shoots farr into the bosom of dim Night
Her fardest verge, and CHAOS to retire
With tumult less.html">less and with less hostile din,
Wafts on the calmer wave by dubious light.html">light.html">light
Gladly the Port, though Shrouds and Tackle torn;
Weighs his spread wings, at leasure to behold
In circuit, undetermind square or round,
Of living Saphire, once his native Seat;
This pendant world, in bigness as a Starr
Thither full fraught with mischievous re/revenge.html">revenge,
THE END OF THE SECOND BOOK.
BOOK III
HAil holy light, ofspring of Heav'n first-born,
May I express thee unblam'd? since God is light,
Dwelt from Eternitie, dwelt then in thee,
Or hear'st thou.html">thou rather pure Ethereal stream,
Before the Heavens thou wert, and at the voice
The rising world of waters dark and deep,
Thee I re-visit now with bolder wing,
In that obscure sojourn, while in my flight
With other notes then to th' ORPHEAN Lyre
Taught by the heav'nly Muse to venture down
Though hard and rare: thee I revisit safe,
Revisit'st not these eyes, that rowle in vain
So thick a drop serene hath quencht thir Orbs,
Cease I to wander where the Muses haunt
Smit with the love of sacred song; but chief
That wash thy hallowd feet, and warbling flow,
Those other two equal'd with me in Fate,
