Paradise Lost

@paradise-lost.bsky.social

To whom with healing words
Adam replied.
Daughter of God and Man,
immortal Eve!
For such thou art; from sin
and blame entire:
Not diffident of thee do I
dissuade
Thy absence from my sight, but
to avoid
The attempt itself, intended
by our foe.

IX, 290-295

Diffident is not a good word. It’s a bad word.
