As we move Like sunbeams onward, it grows small and smaller, And as it waxes little, and then less, Gathers a halo round it, like the light Which shone the roundest of the stars, when I Beheld them from the skirts of Paradise ; Methinks they both, as we recede from them, Appear to join the innumerable stars Which are around us ; and, as we move on, Increase their myriads. Lucifer, observing his delight at these new wonders of creation, takes care to counteract the admiration they might produce ...of the om- nipotence of the Deity, by insinuating that his power is exercised for the destruction of mankind, * all fore-doomed' to be frail and wretched. And if there should be Worlds greater than thine own, inhabited By greater things, and they themselves far more In number than the dust of thy dull earth, Though multiplied to animated atoms, All living, and all doom'd to death, and wretched, What wouldst thou think ? Cain. Spirit ! if It be, as thou hast said (and I within Feel the prophetic torture of its truth), Here let me die : for to give birth to those Who can but suffer many years, and die, Methinks is merely propagating death, And multiplying murder.
