Description

Paradise Lost is an epic poem in blank verse by the 17th-century English poet John Milton (1608-1674).

The first version, published in 1667, consisted of ten books with over ten thousand lines of verse.

A second edition followed in 1674, arranged into twelve books (in the manner of Virgil's Aeneid) with minor revisions throughout and a note on the versification.

It is considered by critics to be Milton's major work, and it helped solidify his reputation as one of the greatest English poets of his time. Paradise Regained is a poem by English poet John Milton, first published in 1671 by John Milton.

The volume in which it appeared also contained the poet's closet drama Samson Agonistes.

Paradise Regained is connected by name to his earlier and more famous epic poem Paradise Lost, with which it shares similar theological themes; indeed, its title, its use of blank verse, and its progression through Christian history recall the earlier work.

However, this effort deals primarily with the temptation of Christ as recounted in the Gospel of Luke.
