Paradise Lost

Which lines in this excerpt from John Milton's Paradise Lost show that Satan acknowledges the goodness of God, despite his claim that God is a dictator?

Into our room of bliss thus high advanc't 
Creatures of other mould, earth-born perhaps,
 
Not Spirits, yet to heav'nly Spirits bright 
Little inferior; whom my thoughts pursue 
With wonder, and could love, so lively shines
 
In them Divine resemblance, and such grace 
The hand that formd them on their shape hath pourd.

Ah gentle pair, yee little think how nigh
Your change approaches, when all these delights 

Will vanish and deliver ye to woe...
