📔 Paradise Regained

Quotes from this book

Who, for so many benefits received, / Turned recreant to God, ingrate and false, / And so of all true good himself despoiled; Under his special eye / Abstemious I grew up and thrived amain; / He led me on to mightiest deeds / Above the nerve of mortal arm / Against the uncircumcised, our enemies; Who, for so many benefits received, / Turned recreant to God, ingrate and false, / And so of all true good himself despoiled; Crystal and myrrhine cups, embossed with gems / And studs of pearl.
