Comme le Poème de Milton (dont voici un tout petit extrait)
► Afficher le texte
Tell me about man's first sin, when he tasted the forbidden fruit and caused all our troubles, until Jesus came and saved us.
Inspire me with this knowledge. You are the heavenly spirit who inspired Moses in his teachings.
I'm asking for your help because I want to write a great work different from any that was ever written before.
I want you to teach me, Holy Spirit, because you value goodness more than fancy churches.
You know everything. You were there at the Beginning. You sat like a dove with your wings spread over the dark emptiness and made it come to life.
Enlighten me where I am ignorant and strengthen my abilities so that I can correctly explain God's great purpose to men.
You know everything about Heaven and Hell, so tell me, what was it that made Adam and Eve go against God's orders? They seemed so happy. He had given them the whole world, except for one little thing.
Who made them do this awful thing? It was that snake from Hell, wasn't it. His envy and thirst for revenge made him go trick Eve the way he did.
His pride had got him thrown out of Heaven with all his followers. They supported him in his ambition to glorify himself - even to the point of waging war against God.
But he was doomed to fail. After a terrible war, God threw him into Hell for daring to fight him.
L'honneur n'est qu'un bien personnel, le plus précieux, certes. Mais l'honneur n'est pas une qualité pour l'exercice de cet art délicat qu'est la guerre.
