In both Paradise Lost and Comes, Milton uses dramatic technique as a way to show social dynamics. Both of the poems have dramatic dynamics but neither would be considered a drama by the standards of the day or by todays standards. However, he uses Aristotelian principles of dramatic action to help make social commentary through these two poems. Overall, intent becomes a major focal point with favouritism being given to those characters with pure intentions. In the end, the social commentary in Comes is gentler and microcosmic as opposed to the larger sweeping epic of Paradise Lost.
