So on he fares, and to the border comes Of Eden, where delicious Paradie, Now nearer, Crowns with her encloure green, As with a rural mound the champain head Of a teep wildernes, whoe hairie ides With thicket overgrown, grotteque and wilde, Acces deni'd; and over head up grew Inuperable highth of loftiet hade, Cedar, and Pine,and Firr, and branching Palm, 140 A Silvan Scene, and as the ranks acend Shade above hade, a woodie Theatre Of tateliet view. Yet higher then thir tops The verdurous wall of Paradie up prung: Which to our general Sire gave profpect large Into his neather Empire neighbouring round.
