LECTURE ON THE POET MILTON
Second of the Series of the University Ex'
tension Course Dealt with the Public
Career of the Poet-NewS
Boiled Down.

The second series of the University
Welsh Calvinistic Methodist church
last evening by Colonel Homer B.
Sprague Phi. D., of Orange, N. j., who
persued the course on Milton's life.
He dwelt on Millions public life and
subsequent retirement. During his re-
marks he said Miltons life was divided
into three periods. First his prepara-
tory, then about twenty years lapse,
in which he wrote nothing but few
prose writings, and, lastly his retire
ment and old age. In 1643 he strolled
| away from London to collect debt of
500 pounds from man named Powell.
This Powell had a beautiful daughter
who was more used to flattery than
philosophy, and a better judge of bon
nets than poetry. She was Royalist;
he Republican. Yet he fell in love and
married her. She was attracted with
him, the best scholar in England hand
some and a schoolmaster. What a
combination of charms.
In 1649 there was a scene which this
planet had never seen before. For
the first time a king is brought to JUS
tice. With dignity he refused to plead.
The case proceeded, and he is sentenced
to die. On Jan. 80 the head of Charles
Stewart, which had worn the crown of
Europe, rolled from the block. The
would-be despot richly deserved his
fate, but it was unpoltic. Pity followed
hate, and the masses went back to roy
atty. The crown was now transferred
to Charles ii, and Milton published a
book on the tenure of kings and mag
istrates. In 1649 he was appointed
secretary of state. He wrote treatise
on Salmasius. Salmasius had written
against parliament, and they wanted
Milton to answer it. The work was of
prodigious power, and in 1t he COM
pletely annihilated Salmasius. Milton
had now become totally blind as a re-
suit of his arduous labors He wrote
two sonnets on his blindness, which
We're very touching. A sonnet was
written by Milton on the massacre at
Piedmont, and during this period
Charles II was triumphantly enthroned.
Opposition to monarchy was now In
vain and Milton was in great danger.
He sought shelter in a friends home.
and as he was supposed to be dead, a
mock funeral paraded the streets with
an empty coffin. His property was
swept away. Now came the days of
servitude or loyalty. The days of the
coward bigot and slave.
Milton next built that stupendous
structure, Paradise Lost" In 1871 he
published Paradise Regained," which
was more symmetrical and less orna-
mental, with the exception Of Athens.
One day Charles II told Milton that his
blindness was Gods punishment.
well" said Milton, "if that is the case,
was not nearly as bad as your father,
for l only lost my eyes, while he lost
his head"
