Paradise Lost 12

Adam deals with the sovereignty of God in this chapter. It is a complex discussion that Milton evokes, "O goodness infinite, goodness immense! That all this good of evil shall produce and evil turn to good more wonderful than that which by Creation first brought forth light out of darkness!" (469-474) What of evil in the world, does God allow it by stepping away from it? Or, will he turn all of it to good eventually? It is a comfort to think that latter, and Adam seems to take refuge in this last chapter.
