Book IX of John Milton's epic poem "Paradise Lost" is a reflection of human nature, and how one deals with temptation. The book contains an elaborate description of the situation of the Garden of Eden, in which both Adam and Eve commit the first sin of manking by eating the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge. Adam is the true originator of sin, however; Eve is not completely responsible for originating sin because of her weak persona and gullibility; whereas Adam consciously decided to eat the fruit even though he was mindful of the consequences.
