Milton – Paradise Lost “These two imparadised in one another’s arms, the happier Eden, shall enjoy their fill of bliss on bliss…”
You and I know…
“The glory of Him who moveth everything Doth penetrate the universe, and shine In one part more and in another less.
Within that heaven which most his light receives Was I, and things beheld which to repeat Nor knows, nor can, who from above descends;
Because in drawing near to its desire Our intellect ingulphs itself so far, That after it the memory cannot go.
Truly whatever of the holy realm I had the power to treasure in my mind Shall now become the subject of my song.”
Paradiso, Canto I

Milton – Paradise Lost
“These two imparadised in one another’s arms,
the happier Eden, shall enjoy their fill of bliss on bliss…”
You and I know…
“The glory of Him who moveth everything
Doth penetrate the universe, and shine
In one part more and in another less.
Within that heaven which most his light receives
Was I, and things beheld which to repeat
Nor knows, nor can, who from above descends;
Because in drawing near to its desire
Our intellect ingulphs itself so far,
That after it the memory cannot go.
Truly whatever of the holy realm
I had the power to treasure in my mind
Shall now become the subject of my song.”
Paradiso, Canto I
