Easier Paradise Lost Edition?

Hey guys. We just started reading Paradise Lost by John Milton in my honors English class. However, after being tasked to read the first 300 lines of book 1, I am now searching for an easier “translation” or version that is rewritten in modern English and not a pain to read. It is exceedingly difficult to get anything out of a book when I don’t understand what I’m reading. If you can recommend a preferably free online edition or something, that’d be great!
