the pendulous round earth with balanct aire ' 1000 '
in counterpoise; now ponders all events;
battels and realms: in these he put two weights
the sequel each of parting and of fight;
the latter quick up flew; and kickt the beam;
which gabriel spying; thus bespake the fiend。 ' 1005 '
satan; i know thy strength; and thou knowst mine;
neither our own but givn; what follie then
to boast what arms can doe; since thine no more
then heavn permits; nor mine; though doubld now
to trample thee as mire: for proof look up; ' 1010 '
and read thy lot in yon celestial sign
where thou art weighd; and shown how light; how weak;
if thou resist。 the fiend lookt up and knew
his mounted scale aloft: nor more; but fled
murmuring; and with him fled the shades of night。 ' 1015 '
the end of the fourth book。
