Lyrics

[00:09.81] There to dwell
[00:10.76] In adamantine chains and penal fire
[00:15.07] Who durst defy the omnipotent to arms
[00:20.32] Nine times the space that measures day and night
[00:25.20] Rolling in the fiery gulf
[00:27.35] Confounded though immortal: but his doom
[00:30.67] Reserved him to more wrath; for now the thought
[00:34.17] Both of lost happiness and lasting pain
[00:36.53] Torments him; round he throws his baleful eyes
[00:41.29] That witnessed huge affliction and dismay
[00:43.79]
[00:45.25] Mixed with obdurate pride and steadfast hate
[00:50.63] At once as far as angels ken he views
[00:54.80] The dismal situation waste and wild
[00:58.04] A dungeon horrible, on all sides round
[01:02.41] Regions of sorrow, doleful shades, where peace
[01:07.84] And rest can never dwell, hope never comes
[01:13.10] That comes to all; but torture without end still urges
[01:20.56] As one great furnace flamed, yet from those flames
[01:23.78] No light, but rather darkness visible
