Demon Mammon

In Paradise Lost Mammon is a demon who has to look down at heavens golden pavement, forever, instead looking up towards God. Later, after the rebellion, he is forced to Hell and where he finds percious metal, of which he builds Pandemonium. Mammon was origanlly a term that meant money or riches. He is also mentioned in the Bible in Matthew 6:24,No one can serve two masters. He will either hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
