Paradise Lost
And was in Eden fair a gard'ners want,
Whose pair did see a fruit to gain a f-ate!
For to a tree of suit desire did hunt,
To loot a break of don't for Godlly state!
How naked shown were they forsworn by greed?
To gr-asp by wrought a cl-asp in height of court,
Where g-ape of eyes in lusting's earnest feed,
Did crop to fetch the steal of heaven's
s-(th)-ought !
Yet by a His-(s) in this with She a Sire !
They wore in leaves clothes hide their discover!
And by this sort of to'ch came passions fire?
To much a sow of bear by one lover !
Thus by this pear tale of a told cannot,
Came gan's loss with expulsion's now begot!!
