"Worthy well they cherishing, thy honouring, and they love
Not thy subjection: weigh with her thy self;
Then value: Oft times nothing profits more then self esteem, grounded on just and right
Well manag'd; of that skill the more thou know'st,
The more she will acknowledge thee her Head" 569-574
Me thinks that Milton was complimentarian 👀 I honestly loved book 8. Book 9 here we come!

“Thus repulsed our final hope
Is flat despair: we must exasperate
Th’ almighty victor to spend all His rage.
And that must end us, that must be our cure:
To be no more. Sad cure! For who would lose,
Though full of pain, this intellectual being,
Those thoughts that wander through eternity,
To perish rather, swallowed up and lost
In the wide womb of uncreated night
Devoid of sense or motion?”

"But list'n not to his temptations, warne
Thy weaker; let it profit thee to have heard
By terrible example the reward
Of disobedience; firm they might have stood,
Yet fell; remember, and fear to transgress." 🫢🫢 907-911

Can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven."
