2 Sathan: his sole appearance in the poem, perhaps in deliberate contrast to his major role in Tasso, Ger. Lib., as Roche 1995:19–20 suggests. He appears here because the seven-headed beast of Rev. 17.3 was ‘interpreted as Satan with his seven sins or vices or heads’ (Tuve 1966:102).

satan在这里的出现很奇怪。
