Paradise Lost Ⅰ 精彩片段:
21
Nor was his name unheard or unadord
In ancient Greece; and in Ausonian land
Men calld him Mulciber; and how he fell [ 740 ]
From Heavn, they fabld, thrown by angry Jove
Sheer ore the Chrystal Battlements: from Morn
To Noon he fell, from Noon to dewy Eve,
A Summers day; and with the setting Sun
Dropt from the Zenith like a falling Star, [ 745 ]
On Lemnos th Ægean Ile: thus they relate,
Erring; for he with this rebellious rout
Fell long before; nor aught availd him now
To have built in Heavn high Towrs; nor did he scape
By all his Engins, but was headlong sent [ 750 ]
With his industrious crew to build in hell.
