john milton

genesis 3: 12-13

and the man said, the woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and i did eat. and the lord god said unto the woman, what is this that thou hast done? and the woman said, the serpent beguiled me, and i did eat.

paradise lost, book x, 124-162

adam sore beset repli'd.
o heav'n! in evil strait this day i stand125
before my judge, either to undergoe
my self the total crime, or to accuse
my other self, the partner of my life;
whose failing, while her faith to me remaines,
i should conceal, and not expose to blame130
by my complaint; but strict necessitie
subdues me, and calamitous constraint
least on my head both sin and punishment,
however insupportable, be all
devolv'd; though should i hold my peace, yet thou135
wouldst easily detect what i conceale.
this woman whom thou mad'st to be my ,
and gav'st me as thy perfet gift, so good,
so fit, so acceptable, so divine,
that from her hand i could suspect no ill,140
and what she did, whatever in it self,
her doing seem'd to justifie the deed;
shee gave me of the tree, and i did eate.

to whom the sovran presence thus repli'd.
was shee thy god, that her thou didst obey145
before his voice, or was shee made thy guide,
superior, or but equal, that to her
thou did'st resigne thy manhood, and the place
wherein god set thee above her made of thee,
and for thee, whose perfection farr excell'd150
hers in all real dignitie: adornd
she was indeed, and lovely to attract
thy love, not thy subjection, and her gifts
were such as under government well seem'd,
unseemly to beare rule, which was thy part155
and person, hadst thou known thy self aright.

so having said, he thus to eve in few:
say woman, what is this which thou hast done?

to whom sad eve with shame nigh overwhelm'd,
confessing soon, yet not before her judge160
bold or loquacious, thus abasht repli'd.
the serpent me beguil'd and i did eate.
