PARADISE REGAINED.
Picture XXVIII.
Jesus on the pinnacle of the Temple.
There on the highest pinnacle he set
The Son of God, and added thus in scorn.
There stand, if thou wilt stand; to stand upright
Will ask thee skill.——
To whom thus Jesus; also it is written,
Tempt not the Lord thy God: he said and stood:
But Satan smitten with amazement fell.
Book IV. v. 549, 560.
