Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Paradise Lost: A Poem in Twelve Books
For the sake of clearness and an easier grasp of points that are novel, I have sometimes divided into several notes what might otherwise have been condensed into one. The same reason will account for a few repetitions. Notes of no great intrinsic value are often useful to show how closely Milton imitated particular biblical or classical pas sages. The present state of Miltonic criticism makes it proper not to overlook such indications.
