Adah.It soundeth like an angel's tone.
Enter the Angel of the Lord.[136]
Angel. Where is thy brother Abel?
Cain.Am I then
My brother's keeper?
Angel.Cain! what hast thou done?
The voice of thy slain brother's blood cries out,470
Even from the ground, unto the Lord!—Now art thou
Cursed from the earth, which opened late her mouth
To drink thy brother's blood from thy rash hand.
