English Poet and Intellectual who Served as a Civil Servant for the Commonwealth of England under its Council of State and Later under Oliver Cromwell

: An English poet and intellectual. His 1667 epic poem Paradise Lost, written in blank verse and including over ten chapters, was written in a time of immense religious flux and political upheaval. It addressed the fall of man, including the temptation of Adam and Eve by the fallen angel Satan and God's expulsion of them from the Garden of Eden. (From: Wikipedia.org.)
