the deep fall Of those too high aspiring who rebelled [900] With Satan, he who envies now thy state, Who now is plotting how he may seduce Thee also from obedience, that, with him Bereaved of happiness, thou mayst partake His punishment, eternal misery, [905] Which would be all his solace and revenge, As a despite done against the most high, Thee once to gain companion of his woe.
