Paradise Lost Ⅺ 精彩片段:

16

Adam was all in tears, and to his guide

Lamenting turnd full sad; O what are these, [ 675 ]

Deaths Ministers, not Men, who thus deal Death

Inhumanly to men, and multiply

Ten thousandfould the sin of him who slew

His Brother; for of whom such massacher

Make they but of thir Brethren, men of men? [ 680 ]

But who was that Just Man, whom had not Heavn

Rescud, had in his Righteousness bin lost?

To whom thus Michael. These are the product

Of those ill mated Marriages thou sawst:

Where good with bad were matcht, who of themselves [ 685 ]

Abhor to joyn; and by imprudence mixt,

Produce prodigious Births of bodie or mind.

作品简介:

Milton's Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of the Fall of Man, a tale of immense drama and excitement, of rebellion and treachery, of innocence pitted against corruption, in which God and Satan fight a bitter battle for control of mankind's destiny. The struggle rages across three worlds - heaven, hell, and earth - as Satan and his band of rebel angels plot their revenge against God. At the center of the conflict are Adam and Eve, motivated by all too human temptations, but whose ultimate downfall is unyielding love.

Marked by Milton's characteristic erudition is a work epic both in scale and, notoriously, in ambition. For nearly 350 years it has held generation upon generation of scholars, students and readers in rapt attention and its profound influence can be seen in almost every corner of Western culture.
