Hunting (and men not beasts shall be his game) With war, and hostile snare, such
as refuse Subjection to his empire tyrannous: A mighty hunter thence he shall be
styled Before the Lord; as in despite of Heaven, Or from Heaven, claiming second
sovranty; And from rebellion shall derive his name, Though of rebellion others
he accuse. He with a crew, whom like ambition joins With him or under him to
tyrannize, Marching from Eden towards the west, shall find The plain, wherein a
black bituminous gurge Boils out from under ground, the mouth of Hell: Of brick,
and of that stuff, they cast to build A city and tower, whose top may reach to
Heaven; And get themselves a name; lest, far dispersed In foreign lands, their
memory be lost; Regardless whether good or evil fame.
