About this book
The book is titled The Poetical Works of John Milton, a gathering of poetry by John Milton. One poem, headed Upon the Circumcision, calls on flaming Powers and winged Warriours bright to mourn, and says that one who entered the world now bleeds to give us ease. A poem headed At a Solemn Musick addresses a blest pair of Sirens, called pledges of Heav'ns joy.
A speech in verse counts two dayes, as the dayes of Heav'n are computed, since Michael and his Powers went forth to tame these disobedient, and says the third is thine. A speaker marked Man tells a Son to be penitent and contrite for his fault and to repent the sin.
