first wheeld thir course; earth in her rich attire
consummate lovly smild; aire;; water; earth;
by fowl; fish; beast; was flown; was swum; was walkt
frequent; and of the sixt day yet remaind;
there wanted yet the master work; the end ' 505 '
of all yet don; a creature who not prone
and brute as other creatures; but endud
with sanctitie of reason; might erect
his stature; and upright with front serene
govern the rest; self…knowing; and from thence ' 510 '
magnanimous to correspond with heavn;
but grateful to acknowledge whence his good
descends; thither with heart and voice and eyes
directed in devotion; to adore
and worship god supream; who made him chief ' 515 '
of all his works: therefore the omnipotent
eternal father (for where is not hee
present) thus to his son audibly spake。
let us make now man in our image; man
in our similitude; and let them rule ' 520 '
over the fish and fowle of sea and aire;;
beast of the field; and over all the earth;
and every creeping thing that creeps the ground。
this said; he formd thee; adam; thee o man
dust of the ground; and in thy nostrils breathd ' 525 '
the breath of life; in his own image hee
created thee; in the image of god
express; and thou becamst a living soul。
male he created thee; but thy consort
female for race; then blessd mankinde; and said; ' 530 '
be fruitful; multiplie; and fill the earth;
subdue it; and throughout dominion hold
over fish of the sea; and fowle of the aire;;
and every living thing that moves on the earth。

wherever thus created; for no place ' 535 '
is yet distinct by name; thence; as thou knowst
he brought thee into this delicious grove;
this garden; planted with the trees of god;
delectable both to behold and taste;
and freely all thir pleasant fruit for food ' 540 '
gave thee; all sorts are here that all th earth yields;
varietie without end; but of the tree
which tasted works knowledge of good and evil;
thou maist not; in the day thou eatst; thou dist;
death is the penaltie imposd; beware; ' 545 '
and govern well thy appetite; least sin
surprise thee; and her black attendant death。
here finishd hee; and all that he had made
viewd; and behold all was entirely good;
so evn and morn acplisht the sixt day: ' 550 '
yet not till the creator from his work
desisting; though unwearied; up returnd
up to the heavn of heavns his high abode;
thence to behold this new created world
th addition of his empire; how it shewd ' 555 '
in prospect from his throne; how good; how faire;
answering his great idea。 up he rode
followd with acclamation and the sound
symphonious of ten thousand harpes that tund
angelic harmonies: the earth; the aire; ' 560 '
resounded; (thou rememberst for thou heardst)
the heavns and all the constellations rung;
the planets in thir stations listning stood;
while the bright pomp ascended jubilant。
open; ye everlasting gates; they sung; ' 565 '
open; ye heavns; your living dores; let in
the great creator from his work returnd
magnificent; his six days work; a world;
open; and henceforth oft; for god will deigne
to visit oft the dwellings of just men ' 570 '
delighted; and with frequent intercourse
thither will send his winged messengers
on errands of supernal grace。 so sung
the glorious train ascending: he through heavn;
that opend wide her blazing portals; led ' 575 '
to gods eternal house direct the way;
a broad and ample rode; whose dust is gold
and pavement starrs; as starrs to thee appeer;
seen in the galaxie; that milkie way
which nightly as a circling zone thou seest ' 580 '
pouderd with starrs。 and now on earth the seventh
eevning arose in eden; for the sun
was set; and twilight from the east came on;
forerunning night; when at the holy mount
of heavns high…seated top; th impereal throne ' 585 '
of godhead; fixt for ever firm and sure;
the filial power arrivd; and sate him down
with his great father (for he also went
invisible; yet staid; such priviledge
hath omnipresence) and the work ordaind; ' 590 '
author and end of all things; and from work
now resting; blessd and hallowd the seavnth day;
as resting on that day from all his work;
but not in silence holy kept; the harp
had work and rested not; the solemn pipe; ' 595 '
and dulcimer; all organs of sweet stop;
all sounds on fret by string or golden wire
temperd soft tunings; intermixt with voice
choral or unison; of incense clouds
fuming from golden censers hid the mount。 ' 600 '
creation and the six dayes acts they sung;
great are thy works; jehovah; infinite
thy power; what thought can measure thee or tongue
relate thee; greater now in thy return
then from the giant angels; thee that day ' 605 '
thy thunders magnifid; but to create
is greater then created to destroy。

who can impair thee; mighty king; or bound
thy empire? easily the proud attempt
of spirits apostat and thir counsels vaine ' 610 '
thou hast repeld; while impiously they thought
thee to diminish; and from thee withdraw
the number of thy worshippers。 who seekes
to lessen thee; against his purpose serves
to manifest the more thy might: his evil ' 615 '
thou usest; and from thence creatst more good。
witness this new…made world; another heavn
from heaven gate not farr; founded in view
on the cleer hyaline; the glassie sea;
of amplitude almost immense; with starrs ' 620 '
numerous; and every starr perhaps a world
of destind habitation; but thou knowst
thir seasons: among these the seat of men;
earth with her nether ocean circumfusd;
thir pleasant dwelling place。 thrice happie men; ' 625 '
and sons of men; whom god hath thus advanct;
created in his image; there to dwell
and worship him; and in reward to rule
over his works; on earth; in sea; or air;
and multiply a race of worshippers ' 630 '
