“Fixe heere,” a curious fragment by the young Milton, has been interpreted by critics as an emblematic piece expressing the poet’s pervasive sense of belatedness. In my “speculative flight of fancy,” I propose a different reading, one that finds a general sense of anticipation and adventure in Milton’s couplet.
