PICTURE XVII.

The creation of EVE, as related by ADAM.

Abstract as in a trance methought I saw,
Though sleeping, where I lay, and saw the shape
Still glorious before whom awake I stood;
Who stooping open'd my left side, and took
From thence a rib----
Under his forming hands a creature grew,
----So lovely fair,
That what seem'd fair in all the world, seem'd now
Mean, or in her summ'd up.----
Book VIII. v. 462, 470.

PICTURE XVIII.

EVE, new created, led to ADAM.

----On she came,
Led by her heav'nly Maker,----
And guided by his voice,----
Grace was in all her steps, Heav'n in her eye,
I overjoy'd could not forbear aloud.
This turn has made amends.----
