The fallen angels must dwell on in " darkness visible. " 3 " Void of light Save what the glimmering of these livid flames Casts pale and dreadful "; * or, according to Boehme, in " darkness absolute, their light only what shineth from their fiery eyes, like the glimmering of a flash of fire. " 5 Boehme's Satan does not beat and tor- ment his children, as some teach, but " they must do his will, and the anguish and horror of hell plague every one of them sufficiently in their own abominations. "... 8 These children of Satan " lost their beauteous form and image and became like serpents, dragons, worms, and evil beasts, " as soon as the divine light was completely extinguished in them. 7 Milton's Satan and his angels became on a sudden a crowd of hissing snakes, after the temptation and fall of the happy pair had been accomplished. 8 1 Three Prin. , chap, x, 47. *P.
