00:00:00,550 --> 00:00:05,140
Satan's first speech from Paradise Lost Book one.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:13,870
And then in heaven called Satan with bold words, breaking the horrid silence.

3
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:20,330
Thus began. If now be is t but oh how full?

4
00:00:20,710 --> 00:00:28,500
How changed from him? Who in the happy realms of light clothed with transcendent brightness didst outshine myriads

5
00:00:28,510 --> 00:00:36,190
though bright if he whom mutual league united thought some counsels equal hope and hazard in

6
00:00:36,190 --> 00:00:45,579
the glorious enterprise joined with me once now misery hath joined in equal ruin into what pitch

7
00:00:45,580 --> 00:00:53,590
thou see us From what I fallen so much the stronger proved he with his thunder Until then,

8
00:00:53,830 --> 00:00:57,070
who knew the force of those dire arms?

9
00:00:58,060 --> 00:01:04,360
Yet not for those, nor what the potent victor in his rage can else inflict.

10
00:01:04,570 --> 00:01:13,810
Do I repent or change? Though changed in outward lustre that fixed mind and high disdain from sense of injured marriage

11
00:01:14,230 --> 00:01:20,260
that with the mightiest raised me to contend and to the fierce contention brought along

12
00:01:20,350 --> 00:01:28,600
innumerable force of spirits armed that first dislike his reign and me preferring his utmost

13
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:35,470
power with adverse power opposed in dubious battle on the plains of heaven and shook his throne.

14
00:01:35,590 --> 00:01:48,190
All is not lost. The unconquerable will and study of revenge, immortal hate and courage never to submit or yield, and what is else not to be overcome?

15
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:59,380
That glory never shall his wrath or might extort from me to bow and sue for grace with supplicant ni and defy his power,

16
00:01:59,590 --> 00:02:05,139
who from the terror of this arm so late doubted his empire that were low?

17
00:02:05,140 --> 00:02:10,120
Indeed that what an ignominy and shame beneath this downfall.

18
00:02:11,460 --> 00:02:17,190
Since by fate, the strength of God's and this Empire, real substance cannot fail,

19
00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:23,370
since through experience of this great event in arms, not worse in foresight,

20
00:02:23,370 --> 00:02:31,710
much advanced, we may, with more successful hope, resolve to wage by force or guile eternal war,

21
00:02:31,860 --> 00:02:39,000
irreconcilable to our grand foe who now triumphs and in the excessive joy.

22
00:02:39,210 --> 00:02:42,750
So reigning holds the tyranny of heaven.
