| And Hell saw first the Bringer of Light weep. | |
| “O myriads of immortal spirits! I should not cry, | |
| For who can yet believe, though after loss, | |
| That all these legions, whose exile | |
| Has emptied Heaven, shall fail to reascend | |
| Self-raised, and repossess their native seat? | |
| For this infernal pit shall never hold celestial | |
| Spirit in bondage, nor the abyss | |
| Long under darkness cover.” | |
| Anon out of the earth a fabric huge, | |
| Built like a Temple, rose, with the sound | |
| Of dulcet symphonies and voices sweet, | |
| PANDAEMONIUM... was built! | |
| “In this Capital, of Hell the Temple, | |
| Worship your Emperor, | |
| Worship Lucifer!” |
| And Hell saw first the Bringer of Light weep. | |
| " O myriads of immortal spirits! I should not cry, | |
| For who can yet believe, though after loss, | |
| That all these legions, whose exile | |
| Has emptied Heaven, shall fail to reascend | |
| Selfraised, and repossess their native seat? | |
| For this infernal pit shall never hold celestial | |
| Spirit in bondage, nor the abyss | |
| Long under darkness cover." | |
