The Poetical Works of John Milton
The Poetical Works of John Milton in this edition, prepared by H. C. Beeching for the Oxford University Press in 1900, prints the poems in the spelling and punctuation of the original editions. It opens with the miscellaneous poems of 1645 and 1673: the Nativity Ode, L'Allegro and Il Penseroso, the sonnets, Arcades, Lycidas, the masque Comus and Milton's translations of the Psalms, with the verse passages scattered through his prose works. Then follow Paradise Lost in twelve books, Paradise Regained in four and the drama Samson Agonistes. Beeching's preface explains the text, and the volume gives in one place everything Milton wrote in English verse. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first poems are free.
