Chapter 98 98

The cherubs and the saints bow'd down before

That archangelic hierarch, the first

Of essences angelical, who wore

The aspect of a god; but this ne'er nursed

Pride in his heavenly bosom, in whose core

No thought, save for his Maker's service, durst

Intrude, however glorified and high;

He knew him but the viceroy of the sky.
