Now ampler known thy Saviour and thy Lord:

Last, in the clouds, from heaven to be revealed

In glory of the Father, to dissolve

Satan with his perverted world; then raise

From the conflagrant mass, purged and refined,

New heaven, new earth, ages of endless date,

Founded in righteousness, and peace, and love;

To bring forth fruits, joy, and eternal bliss.”

Id. book xii, lines 537-551.
