Exiled, banished, Sent down from your throne in heavens gate to the torrential dullness of earth the mear morals around me would call this "paradise lost" yet I refer to it as my paradise found
For were the angles to be banished to earth what may one state the difference be? If there be such beauty in this world as you- heaven doth speak out of sheer vanity
as to call itself the epitome of prosperity? and forth to label itself paradise
for as far as the mear mortal known asĀ I true paradise lay not in gates of pearl,
