Hasting now the sun declined <strong>and</strong> they<br />
In naked majestie seemed lords of all,<br />
Seen in thir looks the image of thir maker.<br />
Ruminating, still in gaze, Satan thus:<br />
“Ere soon your change approaches,<br />
Gentle pair, when all these delights<br />
Retreat <strong>and</strong> deliver ye to woe.<br />
Entertaining Hell shall now enfold thee,<br />
That I with you must dwell.”<br />
“Still reason, honour<br />
And empire with revenge<br />
Decides me to do what I should abore!”<br />
