At the beginning of "Paradise Lost," John Milton calls upon the Muse, specifically invoking the "Heav'nly Muse" to inspire his writing. He seeks guidance to tell the story of humanity's fall from grace through Adam and Eve's disobedience. Milton questions how it is that such innocent beings could succumb to temptation and ultimately lead to the loss of paradise. This inquiry highlights the themes of free will, obedience, and the nature of sin.
