JOHN MILTON, excerpt from his invocation to his muse

John Milton, 

Paradise Lost, 

Book 1, lines 17-23 of the 1667 version...

And chiefly Thou O Spirit, that dost prefer 

Before all Temples th' upright heart and pure, 

Instruct me, for Thou know'st; Thou from the first 

Wast present, and with mighty wings outspread 

Dove-like satst brooding on the vast Abyss 

And mad'st it pregnant: What in me is dark 

Illumine, what is low raise and support; 

I am humbled to be asked to join your team, Elaine Erig.

I will not post often; this is your blog. 

And I will contribute.

Thank you very much.

I am honoured.

If the ability of communicate seems to me

always diplomatic and political,

anyone can read or write merely for knowledge?
