Wast present, and, with mighty wings outspread,
Dove-like sat’st brooding on the vast Abyss,”

Shot after us in storm, o’erblown hath laid
Of Heaven received us falling;”

Your bodies may at last turn all to Spirit,
Improv’d by tract of time, and wingd ascend
Ethereal, as wee, or may at choice
Here or in Heav’nly Paradises dwell;

From standing lake to tripping ebb,
That stole with soft foot towards the deep,
Who now had stopped his sluices,
As the Heaven his windows shut.

Of shrubs and tangling bushes had perplext
All path of Man or Beast that past that way:
One Gate there onely was, and that look’d East

Milton’s God reacts to Man’s foreseeable fall by his plan of grace, …. Milton’s idea of grace is not “irresistible,” but “conditional” upon Man’s choice to accept or refuse it. For Milton, Man does not have the “will” to save himself, but can choose to be “saved” by a will that can save him.
From “Free will and necessity in Milton’s Paradise Lost”.
