The False Dissembler?


Satan is described in Paradise Lost 3.681:
So spake the false dissembler . . .
A dissembler is a dissembler, so a false dissembler is a non-dissembler, right?

So much for Milton's great epic! I'll never again trust a word of it! But WAIT, if Satan is a non-dissembler, then we CAN believe each and every single one of his very words. BUT whom are we to believe? Satan? Or Milton? OR does it not even matter?

Oh, this lit-crit business, so hard to get a handle on.
