acpanied to heaven gate; from whence
eden and all the coast in prospect lay。
down he descended strait; the speed of gods ' 90 '
time counts not; though with swiftest minutes wingd。
now was the sun in western cadence low
from noon; and gentle aires due at thir hour
to fan the earth now wakd; and usher in
the eevning coole; when he from wrauth more coole ' 95 '
came the mild judge and intercessor both
to sentence man: the voice of god they heard
now walking in the garden; by soft windes
brought to thir ears; while day declind; they heard;
and from his presence hid themselves among ' 100 '
the thickest trees; both man and wife; till god
approaching; thus to adam calld aloud。
where art thou adam; wont with joy to meet
my ing seen far off? i miss thee here;
not pleasd; thus entertaind with solitude; ' 105 '
where obvious dutie erewhile appeard unsaught:
or e i less conspicuous; or what change
absents thee; or what chance detains? e forth。
he came; and with him eve; more loth; though first
to offend; discountnanct both; and disposd; ' 110 '
love was not in thir looks; either to god
or to each other; but apparent guilt;
and shame; and perturbation; and despaire;
anger; and obstinacie; and hate; and guile。
whence adam faultring long; thus answerd brief。 ' 115 '
i heard thee in the garden; and of thy voice
affraid; being naked; hid my self。 to whom
the gracious judge without revile replid。

my voice thou oft hast heard; and hast not feard;
but still rejoyct; how is it now bee ' 120 '
so dreadful to thee? that thou art naked; who
hath told thee? hast thou eaten of the tree
whereof i gave thee charge thou shouldst not eat?
to whom thus adam sore beset replid。
o heavn! in evil strait this day i stand ' 125 '
before my judge; either to undergoe
my self the total crime; or to accuse
my other self; the partner of my life;
whose failing; while her faith to me remaines;
i should conceal; and not expose to blame ' 130 '
by my plaint; but strict necessitie
subdues me; and calamitous constraint
least on my head both sin and punishment;
however insupportable; be all
devolvd; though should i hold my peace; yet thou ' 135 '
wouldst easily detect what i conceale。
this woman whom thou madst to be my help;
and gavst me as thy perfet gift; so good;
so fit; so acceptable; so divine;
that from her hand i could suspect no ill; ' 140 '
and what she did; whatever in it self;
her doing seemd to justifie the deed;
shee gave me of the tree; and i did eate。
to whom the sovran presence thus replid。
was shee thy god; that her thou didst obey ' 145 '
before his voice; or was shee made thy guide;
superior; or but equal; that to her
thou didst resigne thy manhood; and the place
wherein god set thee above her made of thee;
and for thee; whose perfection farr excelld ' 150 '
hers in all real dignitie: adornd
she was indeed; and lovely to attract
thy love; not thy subjection; and her gifts
were such as under government well seemd;
unseemly to beare rule; which was thy part ' 155 '
and person; hadst thou known thy self aright。
so having said; he thus to eve in few:
say woman; what is this which thou hast done?

to whom sad eve with shame nigh overwhelmd;
confessing soon; yet not before her judge ' 160 '
bold or loquacious; thus abasht replid。
the serpent me beguild and i did eate。
which when the lord god heard; without delay
to judgement he proceeded on th accusd
serpent though brute; unable to transferre ' 165 '
the guilt on him who made him instrument
of mischief; and polluted from the end
of his creation; justly then accurst;
as vitiated in nature: more to know
concernd not man (since he no further knew) ' 170 '
nor alterd his offence; yet god at last
to satan first in sin his doom applyd
though in mysterious terms; judgd as then best:
and on the serpent thus his curse let fall。
because thou hast done this; thou art accurst ' 175 '
above all cattle; each beast of the field;
upon thy belly groveling thou shalt goe;
and dust shalt eat all the dayes of thy life。
between thee and the woman i will put
enmitie; and between thine and her seed; ' 180 '
her seed shall bruise thy head; thou bruise his heel。
so spake this oracle; then verifid
when jesus son of mary second eve;
saw satan fall like lightning down from heavn;
prince of the aire; then rising from his grave ' 185 '
spoild principalities and powers; triumpht
in open shew; and with ascention bright
captivity led captive through the aire;
the realm it self of satan long usurpt;
whom he shall tread at last under our feet; ' 190 '
eevn hee who now foretold his fatal bruise;
and to the woman thus his sentence turnd。
thy sorrow i will greatly multiplie
by thy conception; children thou shalt bring
in sorrow forth; and to thy husbands will ' 195 '
thine shall submit; hee over thee shall rule。
on adam last thus judgement he pronouncd。

Paradise Lost Ⅹ6
because thou hast hearknd to the voice of thy wife;
and eaten of the tree concerning which
i chargd thee; saying: thou shalt not eate thereof; ' 200 '
cursd is the ground for thy sake; thou in sorrow
shalt eate thereof all the days of thy life;
thorns also and thistles it shall bring thee forth
unbid; and thou shalt eate th herb of th field;
in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread; ' 205 '
till thou return unto the ground; for thou
out of the ground wast taken; know thy birth;
for dust thou art; and shalt to dust returne。
so judgd he man; both judge and saviour sent;
and th instant stroke of death denounct that day ' 210 '
removd farr off; then pittying how they stood
before him naked to the aire; that now
must suffer change; disdaind not to begin
thenceforth the form of servant to assume;
as when he washd his servants feet so now ' 215 '
as father of his familie he clad
thir nakedn
