"But list'n not to his temptations, warne
Thy weaker; let it profit thee to have heard
By terrible example the reward
Of disobedience; firm they might have stood,
Yet fell; remember, and fear to transgress." 🫢🫢 907-911

"Worthy well they cherishing, thy honouring, and they love
Not thy subjection: weigh with her thy self;
Then value: Oft times nothing profits more then self esteem, grounded on just and right
Well manag'd; of that skill the more thou know'st,
The more she will acknowledge thee her Head" 569-574
Me thinks that Milton was complimentarian 👀 I honestly loved book 8. Book 9 here we come!

"Stood to entertain her guest from heaven; no vaile
Shee needed, Vertue-proof, no thought infirme
Altered her cheek" 383-385
I just want to go back to hospitality in Eden.

This book made me think of one of my favorite love songs:
"I'll pull you in for a kiss to get started
And we'll march together
Straight back to the Garden
You'll be the wife, and I'll be the husband
We'll open our home to the widows and orphans
We'll carry our crosses
Trust Him when we couldn't
Yeah, I'll be the man, and you'll be the woman" 🥹

"For never can true reconcilement grow
Where wounds of deadly hate have pierced so deep." 98-99

"New Heav'n and Earth, where in the just shall dwell
And after all thir tribulations long
See golden days, fruitful of golden deeds,
With Joy and Love triumphing, and fair Truth"
(335-338)
Book 3 has me a bit confuzzled but I mean can we really truly grasp heaven while still on earth? Probably not. But we can try!

"While he sought evil to others, and enrag'd might see
How all his malice serv'd but to bring forth
Infinite goodness, grace and mercy shewn
On man by him seduc't, but on himself
Treble confusion, wrath and vengeance pour'd." (215-220)
Ahhhhh guys I'm obsessed! Nothing has ignited my imagined quite as vividly! Wish I could stay up and read more but alas I'm an adult who has to work in the morning...
