Milton's voice resembled "the sea", "pure as the naked heavens, majestic, free". Furthermore, Milton never disdained the ordinary nature of life, but instead "travel[ed] on life's common way", remaining happy, pure (cheerful godliness), and humble (taking the "lowliest duties" on himself).
Milton's voice was likened to "the ocean", "as clear as the unadorned sky, stately, unrestricted". He never shunned the everyday aspects of life but instead "roamed along life's common path", remaining joyful, spotless (cheerful divinity), and modest (embracing the "most menial tasks" himself).
