The poetic style of John Milton, also known as Miltonic verse, Miltonic epic, or Miltonic blank verse, was a highly influential poetic structure popularized by Milton. Although Milton wrote earlier poetry, his influence is largely grounded in his later poems: Paradise Lost, Paradise Regained, and Samson Agonistes.
One important way in which the narrator develops our picture of Satan-and gives us the impression that he is a hero-is through epic similes, lengthy and developed comparisons that tell us how big and powerful Satan is. For example, when Satan is lying on the burning lake, Milton compares him to the titans who waged war upon Jove in Greek mythology. Then, at greater length, he compares him to a Leviathan, or whale, that is so huge that sailors mistake it for an island and fix their anchor to it. In other epics, these sorts of similes are used to establish the great size or strength of characters, and on the surface these similes seem to do the same thing. At the same time, however, the effect of these similes is to unsettle us, making us aware that we really do not know how big Satan is at all. No one knows how big the titans were, because they were defeated before the age of man. The image of the Leviathan does not give us a well-defined sense of his size, because the whole point of the image is that the Leviathan's size generates deception and confusion.
The epic conventions used in the opening lines of 'Paradise Lost' are:
Hi-yo Silver, away! (Siilver was the name of his horse.)
The opening lines start the play off like other plays, with an exposition. There are guards waiting for an impending attack while one of the guards fear that there is a ghost among them. The unease comes from the guard who is "sick at heart" (the ghost is making him nervous).
The opening scene on the beach is a representation of D- Day, June 6, 1944. It is said to accurately reflect what happened on that day- the amphibious landing, paratroopers dropped behind German lines, the injuries that soldiers suffered, etc.
In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police who investigate crime and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.

By mixing Hebrew allusions with references to classical mythology in the opening lines of Paradise Lost, Milton creates a sense of universality and grandeur, suggesting that his epic poem will explore themes that transcend specific cultural boundaries. This blending of traditions establishes a rich and complex cultural background for the poem, emphasizing the epic scope of the story that will unfold. It also serves to highlight the blend of Christian and classical influences that will shape the narrative of Paradise Lost.

Section lines are typically associated with land surveying to denote boundaries between different sections of land. They are typically drawn on maps or plots to indicate the separation of land parcels or ownership boundaries. These lines are an important tool for accurately identifying and documenting land divisions for legal and administrative purposes.

No. Because it has more than four lines and does not have alternate rhyme. It is in fact a poem, not a sonnet.
