The Printer to the Reader
Courteous Reader,
There was no Argument at first intended to the Book, but for the satisfaction of many that have desired it, I have procur'd it, and withall a reason of that, which stumbled many others, why the Poem Rimes not.
S. Simmons
The ARGUMENT:
Of the FIRST BOOK.
THe first Book proposes first in brief the whole Subject,
Mans disobedience, and the loss thereupon of Paradise wherein he was plac't:
Then touches
the prime cause of his fall, the serpent, or rather
Satan
in the serpent; who revolting from God, and drawing to his side many Legions of Angels, was by the command of God driven out of Heaven with all his Crew into the great Deep.
