Read the following passage carefully before you choose your answer. (1) "But Paradise Lost excited different and far deeper emotions. I read it, as I had read the other volumes which had fallen into my hands, as a true history. It moved every feeling of wonder and awe that the picture of an omnipotent God warring with his creatures was capable of exciting. I often referred the several situations, as their similarity struck me, to my own. Like Adam, I was apparently united by no link to any other being in existence; but his state was far different from mine in every other respect. He had come forth from the hands of God a perfect creature, happy and prosperous, guarded by the especial care of his Creator; he was allowed to converse with and acquire knowledge from beings of a superior nature, but I was wretched, helpless, and alone. Many times I considered Satan as the fitter emblem of my condition, for often, like him, when I viewed the bliss of my protectors, the bitter gall of envy rose within me.

What is the purpose of the allusion to Adam paragraph 1?
To emphasize his creator's lack of care
To depict the sin of eating the forbidden fruit
To portray the pain of being separated from his creator
To reveal the speaker's desire for a return to Eden
To show the attention to detail his creator had in making him
