In Paradisum Amissam Summi Poetæ JOHANNIS MILTONI.
QUi legis Amissam Paradisum, grandia magni
Carmina
Miltoni,
quid nisi cuncta legis?
Res cunctas, & cunctarum primordia rerum,
Et fata, & fines continet iste liber.
Intima panduntur magni penetralia mundi,
Scribitur & toto quicquid in Orbe latet.
Terræque, tractusque maris, cœlumque profundum
Sulphureumque
Erebi
, flammivomumque specus.
Quæque colunt terras, Portumque &
Tartara
cæca,
Quæque colunt summi lucida regna Poli.
Et quodcunque ullis conclusum est finibus usquam,
Et sine fine Chaos, & sine fine Deus:
Et sine fine magis, si quid magis est sine fine,
In
Christo
erga homines conciliatus amor.
Hæc qui speraret quis crederet esse futurum?
Et tamen hæc hodie terra
Britanna
legit.
O quantos in bella Duces! quæ protulit arma! . . .
