00:00:02.280 --> 00:00:11.330 align:middle line:84%
To counteract that, we'll have
a little paradise, sort of.

00:00:11.330 --> 00:00:13.880 align:middle line:84%
This is called "Paradise-Un,"
and it has an epigraph from

00:00:13.880 --> 00:00:18.560 align:middle line:84%
Kevin Jackson in his
book Invisible Forms.

00:00:18.560 --> 00:00:21.440 align:middle line:84%
One of the early outline drafts
of the poem "Paradise Lost"

00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:23.540 align:middle line:84%
suggests that Milton
was considering

00:00:23.540 --> 00:00:27.860 align:middle line:84%
the alternative title,
"Adam unparadiz'd,"

00:00:27.860 --> 00:00:30.950 align:middle line:84%
which pleases me
that Milton could

00:00:30.950 --> 00:00:32.929 align:middle line:90%
have thought that would fly.

00:00:32.929 --> 00:00:36.070 align:middle line:90%


00:00:36.070 --> 00:00:37.990 align:middle line:90%
"Paradise-Un."

00:00:37.990 --> 00:00:43.330 align:middle line:84%
In the beginning, God
unaccompanied and unmanned,

00:00:43.330 --> 00:00:44.860 align:middle line:90%
made light.

00:00:44.860 --> 00:00:48.130 align:middle line:90%
Adam, as yet, unimagined.

00:00:48.130 --> 00:00:51.220 align:middle line:84%
Then the world
unwound from heaven.

00:00:51.220 --> 00:00:53.620 align:middle line:84%
The day unbuttoned
from the night.

00:00:53.620 --> 00:00:56.710 align:middle line:84%
The sea unearthed, and
the Earth unfastened.

00:00:56.710 --> 00:01:00.640 align:middle line:84%
The grass and the trees
unhusked their seeds.

00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:03.040 align:middle line:90%
Adam unhastened.

00:01:03.040 --> 00:01:06.850 align:middle line:84%
God created he,
him, Adam unfallen,

00:01:06.850 --> 00:01:11.050 align:middle line:84%
unpinned from the
ground, unhitched Adam.

00:01:11.050 --> 00:01:15.250 align:middle line:84%
Adam, unbound, and in order
that Eve could uncage,

00:01:15.250 --> 00:01:16.660 align:middle line:90%
Adam unribbed.

00:01:16.660 --> 00:01:20.800 align:middle line:84%
And both undressed
and were unashamed.

00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:25.990 align:middle line:84%
But the serpent more subtle
unheard from until now,

00:01:25.990 --> 00:01:31.150 align:middle line:84%
unlocked and unappled
Eve and Adam unabled.

00:01:31.150 --> 00:01:35.860 align:middle line:84%
Then the unthorned got thorns
and the unthistled, thistles.

00:01:35.860 --> 00:01:39.040 align:middle line:90%
The Earth untoiled until then.

00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:46.510 align:middle line:84%
Adam unparadized, a song not
unsung of life's uneasying

00:01:46.510 --> 00:01:48.500 align:middle line:90%
and Adam undone.

00:01:48.500 --> 00:01:49.000 align:middle line:90%
