Why So Different

I remember Mrs. Stariha saying that the 17Th century was a time period of transition into more modern forms of literature but I had no idea it would be as dramatic as the difference between Paradise Lost and The Pilgrim's Progress. The Pilgrim's Progress was a thousand time easier to read because it was in almost moder text (not to mention it used the word "hubbub" a couple of times) and Paradise Lost was written in text that was similar to Middle English. I hope that this is a sign that that stories will just get easier form here on out.
