Book three of PARADISE LOST begins (lines 1-55) with the poet offering a paean to the 'celestial light,' his muse, and while lamenting his temporal blindness, he asks the light to shine inward so "that I may see and tell/Of things invisible to mortal sight."

His vision then turns to heaven and discussion between Father and Son and the plan of redemption freely undertaken by the eternal Word, and the angelic choir sings the glory of the Eternal Godhead's justice and mercy.

The vision then shifts again to Satan, who arriving on earth seeks for Eden.
