Paradise Lost Ⅶ 精彩片段:

12

Wherever thus created, for no place [ 535 ]

Is yet distinct by name, thence, as thou knowst

He brought thee into this delicious Grove,

This Garden, planted with the Trees of God,

Delectable both to behold and taste;

And freely all thir pleasant fruit for food [ 540 ]

Gave thee, all sorts are here that all th Earth yields,

Varietie without end; but of the Tree

Which tasted works knowledge of Good and Evil,

Thou maist not; in the day thou eatst, thou dist;

Death is the penaltie imposd, beware, [ 545 ]

And govern well thy appetite, least sin

Surprise thee, and her black attendant Death.

Here finishd hee, and all that he had made

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.
