Cain.‍Ah!

Thou look'st almost a god; and——

Lucifer.‍I am none:

And having failed to be one, would be nought

Save what I am. He conquered; let him reign!130

Cain. Who?

Lucifer.‍Thy Sire's maker—and the Earth's.

Cain.‍And Heaven's,

And all that in them is. So I have heard

His Seraphs sing; and so my father saith.
