lucifer
with lucifer, although an angel he
and not a man, i purpose to begin.
for notwithstanding angels cannot be
the sport of fortune, yet he fell though sin
down into hell, and he is yet therein.
o lucifer, brightest of angels all.
now thou art satan, and canst never win
out of thy miseries; how great they fall!

adam
consider adam, made by god's own finger,
and not begotten of man's unclean seed,
he that in eden was allowed to linger
— now call damascus — and had power at need
over all paradise, save that decreed
and single tree prohibited. than he
none ever on earth stood higher, till his deed
drove him to labour, hell and misery.
