Just started trying to re-read Paradise Lost
It kicks off rather well, I think:
"Of Mans First Disobedience, and the Fruit
Of that Forbidden Tree, whose mortal tast
Brought Death into the World, and all our woe,
With loss of EDEN, till one greater Man
Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat,
Sing Heav'nly Muse, that on the secret top
Of OREB, or of SINAI, didst inspire
That Shepherd..."
But, Jesus wept, does it go on. And on and on. With barely a full stop to be found.
Fuck that for a game of soldiers, I'm buying the new Dan Brown.
