Question

Which two sets of lines in this excerpt from John Milton's Paradise Lost show that Satan acknowledges the goodness of God, despite his claim that God is a dictator?

Into our room of bliss thus high advanc't
Creatures of other mould, earth-born perhaps,
Not Spirits, yet to heav'nly Spirits bright
Little inferior; whom my thoughts pursue
With wonder, and could love, so lively shines
In them Divine resemblance, and such grace
The hand that formd them on their shape hath pourd.
Ah gentle pair, yee little think how nigh
Your change approaches, when all these delights
Will vanish and deliver ye to woe...

Answer 2

The two sets of lines that explain that satan acknowledges god are

" not spirits but heavenly spirits " and "in them divine resemblence and such grace "

Step-by-step explanation:

By saying that they are heavenly spirits , he does agree and compares them to good because heaven is all good . Also, the satan feels that its only because of their love that the other creatures shine so bright .

He compares them to divine resemblences and feels that they are filled with complete grace . so, the satan does acknowledge that the god is good inspite of being a dictator .
