Be it Paradise lost
Or Regained,
Whatever be the cost,
Who could ever think to write
Like John , lines so bright?
Or Regained,
Whatever be the cost,
Who could ever think to write
Like John , lines so bright?
Upholding the freedom of press
At that time even,
'Areopagitica '
As it was so named,
And then there is Lycidas
Who had been multilinguist such?
Knowing hebrew and also dutch,
Who had created things polemic
Out of excruciating grief?
Who could create Satan that way
An anti hero holding sway
Over the whole world,
Declaring outright
' better to reign in hell
Than in heaven serve'?
His L' allegro and Il Penseroso
How in us still wonder sow,
And when we read
' On the morning of Christ's Nativity'
How are we filled by only pity,
His that poem on Shakespeare
How brings forth his tribute
To his literary predecessor,
At that time even,
'Areopagitica '
As it was so named,
And then there is Lycidas
Who had been multilinguist such?

Who had created things polemic

How in us still wonder sow,
And when we read
' On the morning of Christ's Nativity'
How are we filled by only pity,
His that poem on Shakespeare
How brings forth his tribute
To his literary predecessor,
And the book that he added
To Paradise Regained
How that for us Samson
brought, that champ,
How we through him gained,
To Paradise Regained
How that for us Samson
brought, that champ,
How we through him gained,
Be i t Paradise lost
Or Regained,
Whatever be the cost,
Who could ever think to write
Like John , lines so bright?
Or Regained,
Whatever be the cost,
Who could ever think to write
Like John , lines so bright?
