I Sing the Briton and his Righteous Arms Who bred to Suff'rings and the rude Alarms Of bloody War forsook his Native Soil And long sustain'd a vast Heroick Toil Till kinder Fate invited his Return To bless the Isle that did his Absence mourn To re-enthrone fair Liberty and break The Saxon Yoke that gall'd Britannia's Neck Tell Sacred Muse what made th' Infernal King Use all his Arts and all his Forces bring The Generous Briton's Triumphs to oppose Afflict his Friends and aid his cruel Foes Tell why the angry Pow'rs below combine T' oppress a Valiant Prince and thwart his brave Design Ambitious Lucifer depos'd of late From Bliss Divine and high Angelick State Sinks to the dark unbottom'd Deep of Hell Where Sin and Death and endless Sorrow dwell Here plung'd in Flame and tortur'd with Despair He plots Revenge and meditates new War His Thoughts on deep Designs th' Apostate spent When this Conjuncture favour'd his Intent A spacious dusky Plain lay wast and void Where yet Creating Power was ne'er employ'd To fashion Elements or strike out Light The silent lonesome Walks of ancient Night In th' Archives kept in Heav'n's bright Towers was found A sacred old Decree wherein the Ground Was set distinctly out from Ages past For a new World on this unbounded Wast Here did th' Artificer Divine of late The World so long before markt out create And gave it to the Man he newly made Where all things him as he did Heav'n obey'd In Eden's Walks he made his blest Abode All full of Joy of Glory full of God Nature with vast Profusion on him pours Unmeasur'd Bliss from unexhausted Stores Th' Apostate raging at his own Defeat And envying this new Prince his happy Seat Labours to win him to his Side to bear Arms against Heav'n and wage Confed'rate War Nor did his Arts in vain weak Man assail His false Seraphick Tongue and Charms prevail Deluded Man from his high Station
