BOOK 10<br />
Meanwhile, the hainous <strong>and</strong> despiteful<br />
Act of Satan was known in Heaven. God said,<br />
“Now shall forebearance find no quittance.”<br />
So spake the Son: “I myself will go to judge on<br />
Earth these transgressors for thir sins<br />
Derive on me their doom, for in this I alone<br />
Undertake to temper justice with mercie shown.<br />
Convict <strong>by</strong> flight the third no mercie in my sight.”<br />
Eden bound He flies on steed of light,<br />
Descending straight <strong>and</strong> true upon his flight.<br />
