know。 raphael es down to paradise； his appearance describd； his ing discernd by adam afar off sitting at the door of his bower； he goes out to meet him； brings him to his lodge； entertains him with the choycest fruits of paradise got together by eve； thir discourse at table： raphael performs his message； minds adam of his state and of his enemy； relates at adams request who that enemy is； and how he came to be so； beginning from his first revolt in heaven； and the occasion thereof； how he drew his legions after him to the parts of the north； and there incited them to rebel with him； perswading all but only abdiel a seraph； who in argument diswades and opposes him； then forsakes him。 ．co Paradise Lost Ⅴ1 ｄａｕｅｅｎｇｉａｏｕｏａｎｇ now morn her rosie steps in th eastern clime advancing； sowd
