Paradise Lost

Of Mans First Disobedience,
and the Fruit
Of that Forbidden Tree,
whose mortal taste
Brought Death into the World,
and all our woe,
With loss of Eden,
till one greater Man
Restore us,
and regain the blissful Seat.

From Paradise Lost by John Milton 1674

And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Genesis 3:15
