I am inclined to believe that this is the land God gave to Cain.

God Almighty first planted a garden. And indeed, it is the purest of human pleasures.

The groves were God's first temples.

Had Cain been Scot, God would have changed his doom nor forced him wander, but confine him home.

Nature made the fields and man the cities.

Cain slew Abel. On that much the Torah and the Bible and the Qur'an agree, although in the Qur'an these first sons of Adam and Eve are Qabeel and Habeel. Cain, which is to say Qabeel, wandered eastwards from Eden to the Land of Nod with a mark of some kind on him, a curse.

Time was God's first creation.

Prohibition didn't work in the Garden of Eden. Adam ate the apple.

The Lord made Adam, the Lord made Eve, he made 'em both a little bit naive.
