"Milton was a poet," Lestat says, looking down at the stranger who spoke to him as he moved by in passing, "Most commonly known for composing Paradise Lost, although a prolific polemicist prior to that. As for where we are, really - " the mimicry of the arrangement of the words a passing entertainment " - perhaps the secret lies in the allusion."

Of course, even all the most ignorant and unstudied have heard of Paradise Lost, even if they misplace the name of its author.
