In dim eclipse, disastrous twilight sheds On half the nations, and with fear of change Perplexes monarchs.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Hail holy light, offspring of ...

Hail holy light, offspring of heav'n firstborn!

John Milton 1062 quotes

...it ought not to appear wond...

...it ought not to appear wonderful if many, both Jews and others, who lived before Christ, and many also who have lived since his time, but to whom he has never been revealed, should be saved by faith in God alone: still however, through the sole merits of Christ, inasmuch as he was given and slain from the beginning of the world, even for those to whom he was not known, provided they believed in God the Father.

John Milton 1062 quotes

He that can apprehend and cons...

He that can apprehend and consider vice with all her baits and seeming pleasures, and yet abstain, and yet distinguish, and yet prefer that which is truly better, he is the true wayfaring Christian. I cannot praise a fugitive and cloistered virtue, unexercised and unbreathed, that never sallies out and sees her adversary, but slinks out of the race, where that immortal garland is to be run for, not without dust and heat. Assuredly we bring not innocence into the world, we bring impurity much rather: that which purifies

John Milton 1062 quotes

And these gems of Heav'n, her starry train.

Fame is the last infirmity of the human mind.

Son of Heav'n and Earth, Attend: that thou art happy, owe to God; That thou continuest such, owe to thyself, That is, to thy obedience; therein stand.

Live while ye may, Yet happy pair.

Must I thus leave thee, Paradise?-thus leave Thee, native soil, these happy walks and shades?

John Milton 1062 quotes

She what was honour knew, And ...

She what was honour knew, And with obsequious majesty approv'd My pleaded reason. To the nuptial bower I led her blushing like the morn; all heaven And happy constellations on that hour Shed their selectest influence; the earth Gave sign of gratulation, and each hill; Joyous the birds; fresh gales and gentle airs Whisper'd it to the woods, and from their wings Flung rose, flung odours from the spicy shrub.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Reason also is choice....

Reason also is choice.

And, when night Darkens the streets, then wander forth the sons Of Belial, flown with insolence and wine.

To be weak is miserable, Doing or suffering.

John Milton 1062 quotes

O shame to men! Devil with dev...

O shame to men! Devil with devil damned Firm concord holds, men only disagree Of creatures rational, though under hope Of heavenly grace: and God proclaiming peace, Yet live in hatred, enmity, and strife Among themselves, and levy cruel wars, Wasting the earth, each other to destroy: As if (which might induce us to accord) Man had not hellish foes enough besides, That day and night for his destruction wait.

It is lawful and hath been held so through all ages for any one who have the power to call to account a tyrant or wicked king, and after due conviction to depose and put him to death.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Wisdom's self oft seeks to sweet retired solitude, where with her best nurse Contemplation, she plumes her feathers, and lets grow her wings that in the various bustle of resort were all to-ruffled, and sometimes impaired.

John Milton 1062 quotes

For contemplation he and valour formed; / For softness she and sweet attractive grace, / He for God only, she for God in him: / His fair large front and eye sublime declared / Absolute rule.

Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss

But peaceful was the night Wherein the Prince of Light His reign of peace upon the earth began.
