lyrics

Of man's first disobedience
and the fruit Of that forbidden tree
whose mortal taste wet and sweet
Brought the death into the world,

Began to bloom where first it grew
From heaven removed soon for man's offence

Into this wild Abyss the wary Fiend
Stood on the brink of Hell
and looked a while Pondering his voyage
all the lands and seas He had to cross.

The womb of Nature, and perhaps her grave
But all these in their pregnant causes mixed
Confusedly, and which thus must ever fight
Unless the Almighty Maker them ordain

Began to bloom where first it grew
From heaven removed soon for man's offence
