[00:37.912] Lucifer:
[00:37.912] Ye speedy spirits, stay our chariot now,
[00:42.144] God’s Morning-star in its full zenith stands;
[00:46.412] Its height is reached; and lo! the moment comes
[00:51.007] When Lucifer must set before this star,
[00:55.946] This double star that rises from below
[01:00.610] And seeks the way above, to tarnish Heaven with earthy glow.
[01:08.216] No more should ye adorn
[01:10.064] Proud Lucifer’s apparel with glittering crowns,
[01:15.322] Nor gild his forehead with the glorious dawn
[01:19.908] Of morning-star, to which archangels kneel.
[01:25.772] Another splendor sweeps into the light of god,
[01:29.453] Whose radiance drowns our vaunted glory.
[01:35.889] As to the eyes of man, below, the sun,
[01:40.005] By day, puts out the stars.
[01:42.337] The shades of night
[01:44.207] Bedim the Angels and the suns of Heaven
[01:48.108] For man has won the heart of the Most High,
[01:50.892] Within his new-created Paradise.
[01:55.244] He is the friend of Heaven.
[01:57.302] Our slavery even mow begins.
[02:00.344] Go hence, rejoice and serve
[02:03.898] And honor this new race like servile slaves.
[02:07.028] For god was man created;
[02:09.796] We, for him.
[02:11.130] Let then the Angels bend their necks beneath his feet.
[02:15.124] Let each one now upon him wait
[02:17.472] And bear him even onto the highest thrones on hands or wings:
[02:22.360] For our inheritance shall pass to him,
[02:25.642] The chosen son of god.
[02:27.917] We, the first-born, shall suffer in this Realm.
[02:32.548] The son born on that sixth day, and made
[02:36.476] In the image of the Father, shall attain
[02:39.253] The crown. And rightly unto him was given
[02:42.235] The mighty scepter, which shall cause even us,
[02:45.836] The once first born, to tremble and to shake
[02:53.169] Here holds no contradiction now: ye heard
[02:56.585] What Gabriel’s trump spake at the golden port?
[03:19.123] Beelzebub:
[03:19.123] O! Stadholder of god’s superior powers,
[03:22.504] Alas! We hear too well, amid the praise
[03:25.722] Of choristers, a discord that makes sad
[03:28.947] The feast eterne. The charge of Gabriel is clear
[03:33.578] It needs no tongue of Cherubim to unfold its sense.
[03:40.557] Nor was there need to send Apollion below, a nearer view
[03:44.566] To gain of Adam’s realm beneath the moon.
[04:02.004] The massive gate of Heaven stands ajar for Adam’s seed.
[04:06.153] An earth-worm that has crawled out of the dust
[04:09.490] Out of a clod of clay defies thy power
[04:13.070] Thou shalt yet man behold o’er thee exalted
[04:16.889] So that thou shalt fall
[04:21.107] Lucifer:
[04:21.107] That shall I thwart, if in my power it be
[04:29.704] That shall I thwart, if in my power it be
[04:38.333] That shall I thwart, if in my power it be
[05:10.823] Beelzebub:
[05:10.823] Who is their center and circumference
[05:14.004] What clearer proof need we to see that God
[05:16.348] Shall glorify mankind, and us degrade
[05:44.744] For we are born to serve, and man, to rule
[05:53.533] Lucifer:
[05:53.533] That shall I thwart, if in my power it be
[06:00.549] That shall I thwart, if in my power it be
[06:09.211] That shall I thwart, if in my power it be
[06:19.133] That shall I thwart, if in my power it be
