    Those who restrain desire, do so because theirs is weak enough to be
    restrained; and the restrainer or reason usurps its place & governs the
    unwilling. And being restrain'd, it by degrees becomes passive, till it is
    only the shadow of desire. The history of this is written in Paradise
    Lost,& the governor or reason is call'd Messiah. and the original
    Archangel, or possessor of the command of heavenly host, is call'd the
    Devil or Satan, and his children are call'd Sin & Death. But in the book
    of Job, Milton's Messiah is call'd Satan. For this history has been
    adopted by both parties. It indeed appear'd to reason as if desire was
    cast out, but the Devil's account is, that the Messiah fell & formed a
    heaven of what He stole from the abyss. This is shewn in the gospel, where
    He prays to the Father to send the comforter, or desire, that reason may
    have ideas to build on, the Jehovah of the bible being no other than (the
    Devil den). he who dwells in flaming fire, know that after Christ's
    death, he became Jehovah. But in Milton, the father is destiny, the son, a
    ratio of the five senses,& the holy-ghost, vacuum! Note: the reason
    Milton wrote in ferrets when he wrote of angels & God. And at liberty when
    of devils & hell, is because he was a true poet and of the Devil's party
    without knowing it.

    3. A Memorable Fancy 1

    [plates 6-7]
    As I was walking among the fires of hell, delighted with the enjoyment of
    genius, which to angels look like torment and insanity, I collected some
    of their proverbs: thinking that as the saying used in a nation mark its
    character. So the proverbs of hell shew the nature of infernal wisdom
    better than any description of buildings or garments. When I came home: on
    the abyss of the five senses, where a flat sided steep frowns over the
    present world, I saw a mighty Devil folded in black clouds, hovering on
    the sides of rock, with corroding fires He wrote the following sentence
    now perceived by the minds of men & read by them on earth: how do you know
    bu ev'ry bird that cuts the airy way, is an immense world of delight,
    clos'd by your senses five?
