Since the options are not given, I am giving the answer based on a similar question from another website.
The correct answer should be - 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...

In these lines, Satan talks about the pair indicating Adam and Eve, to have a "Divine resemblance," which is supposed to be a likeness to God, and "grace." As these factors are equated to one another, it can be inferred that God has grace, and so, God is good.
Satan also says that the goodness of God is because he created Adam and Eve, and he was the one who "formd their shape" and "pourd" grace into them. Since God had bestowed these traits on them, it can be inferred that God is good.
