Lycidas

In the journey of life Man will often question his or her position in the universe. Questioning ones worth and purpose in the universe will harbor the attention of Man until the end of time. The antidote for the majority of the world comes in maintaining a religion. In Sonnet 7 and Lycidas, John Milton takes the reader on the journey Man takes in fulfilling God’s will. In the poems Milton examines the importance of …

…he has been given spiritual gifts from God that he must use for God’s will. Although he may doubt himself from time to time, or he may question his success in fulfilling God’s will, he also recognizes the gift God has given him in salvation. In the end Milton believes that God’s plan will reveal itself, and truth will win, in his own life and in the world around him. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
