of hard contents; and full of force urgd home;
such as we might perceive amusd them all;
and stumbld many; who receives them right;
had need from head to foot well understand; ' 625 '
not understood; this gift they have besides;
they shew us when our foes walk not upright。
so they among themselves in pleasant veine
stood scoffing; highthnd in thir thoughts beyond
all doubt of victorie; eternal might ' 630 '
to match with thir inventions they presumd
so easie; and of his thunder made a scorn;
and all his host derided; while they stood
a while in trouble; but they stood not long;
rage prompted them at length; and found them arms ' 635 '
against such hellish mischief fit to oppose。

forthwith (behold the excellence; the power
which god hath in his mighty angels placd)
thir arms away they threw; and to the hills
(for earth hath this variety from heavn ' 640 '
of pleasure situate in hill and dale)
light as the lightning glimps they ran; they flew;
from thir foundations loosning to and fro
they pluckt the seated hills with all thir load;
rocks; waters; woods; and by the shaggie tops ' 645 '
up lifting bore them in thir hands: amaze;
be sure; and terrour seisd the rebel host;
when ing towards them so dread they saw
the bottom of the mountains upward turnd;
till on those cursed engins triple…row ' 650 '
they saw them whelmd; and all thir confidence
under the weight of mountains buried deep;
themselves invaded next; and on thir heads
main promontories flung; which in the air
came shadowing; and opprest whole legions armd; ' 655 '
thir armor helpd thir harm; crusht in and bruisd
into thir substance pent; which wrought them pain
implacable; and many a dolorous groan;
long strugling underneath; ere they could wind
out of such prison; though spirits of purest light; ' 660 '
purest at first; now gross by sinning grown。
the rest in imitation to like armes
betook them; and the neighbouring hills uptore;
so hills amid the air encounterd hills
hurld to and fro with jaculation dire; ' 665 '
that under ground; they fought in dismal shade;
infernal noise; warr seemd a civil game
to this uproar; horrid confusion heapt
upon confusion rose: and now all heavn
had gone to wrack; with ruin overspred; ' 670 '
had not th almightie father where he sits
shrind in his sanctuarie of heavn secure;
consulting on the sum of things; foreseen
this tumult; and permitted all; advisd:
that his great purpose he might so fulfill; ' 675 '
to honour his anointed son avengd
upon his enemies; and to declare
all power on him transferrd: whence to his son
th assessor of his throne he thus began。

;
effulgence of my glorie; son belovd; ' 680 '
son in whose face invisible is beheld
visibly; what by deitie i am;
and in whose hand what by decree i doe;
second omnipotence; two dayes are past;
two dayes; as we pute the dayes of heavn; ' 685 '
since michael and his powers went forth to tame
these disobedient; sore hath been thir fight;
as likeliest was; when two such foes met armd;
for to themselves i left them; and thou knowst;
equal in thir creation they were formd; ' 690 '
save what sin hath impaird; which yet hath wrought
insensibly; for i suspend thir doom;
whence in perpetual fight they needs must last
endless; and no solution will be found:
warr wearied hath performd what warr can do; ' 695 '
and to disorderd rage let loose the reines;
with mountains as with weapons armd; which makes
wild work in heavn; and dangerous to the maine。
two dayes are therefore past; the third is thine;
for thee i have ordaind it; and thus farr ' 700 '
have sufferd; that the glorie may be thine
of ending this great warr; since none but thou
can end it。 into thee such vertue and grace
immense i have transfusd; that all may know
in heavn and hell thy power above pare; ' 705 '
and this perverse motion governd thus;
to manifest thee worthiest to be heir
of all things; to be heir and to be king
by sacred unction; thy deserved right。
go then thou mightiest in thy fathers might; ' 710 '
ascend my chariot; guide the rapid wheeles
that shake heavns basis; bring forth all my warr;
my bow and thunder; my almightie arms
gird on; and sword upon thy puissant thigh;
pursue these sons of darkness; drive them out ' 715 '
from all heavns bounds into the utter deep:
there let them learn; as likes them; to despise
god and messiah his anointed king。

shon full; he all his father full exprest ' 720 '
ineffably into his face receivd;
and thus the filial godhead answering spake。
o father; o supream of heavnly thrones;
first; highest; holiest; best; thou alwayes seekst
to glorifie thy son; i alwayes thee; ' 725 '
as is most just; this i my glorie account;
my exaltation; and my whole delight;
that thou in me well pleasd; declarst thy will
fulfilld; which to fulfil is all my bliss。
scepter and power; thy giving; i assume; ' 730 '
and gladlier shall resign; when in the end
thou shalt be all in all; and i in thee
for ever; and in mee all whom thou lovst:
but whom thou hatst; i hate; and can put on
thy terrors; as i put thy mildness on; ' 735 '
image of thee in all things; and shall soon;
armd with thy might; rid heavn of these rebelld;
to thir prepard ill mansion driven down
to chains of darkness; and th undying worm;
that from thy just obedience could revolt; ' 740 '
whom to obey is happiness entire。
then shall thy saints unmixt; and from th impure
farr separate; circling thy holy mount
unfeigned halleluiahs to thee sing;
hymns of high praise; and i among them chief。 ' 745 '
