"description": "LibriVox recording of Samson Agonistes, by John Milton. Read by Martin Geeson.\u201cThe Sun to me is dark
And silent as the Moon,
When she deserts the night
Hid in her vacant interlunar cave.\u201d
Milton composes his last extended work as a tragedy according to the classical Unities of Time, Place and Action. Nevertheless it \u201cnever was intended for the stage\u201d and is here declaimed by a single reader.
Samson the blinded captive, in company with the Chorus of friends and countrymen, receives his visitors on their varying missions and through them his violent story is vividly recalled. Then he is summoned to give a final demonstration of God-given strength to entertain the Philistines, his captors. Famously \u2013 and of course, offstage \u2013 his performance brings the house down. (Summary by Martin Geeson)
