Nothing wrong with this. The Lattimore and Fagles translations could easily be formatted into prose.

>The Divine Comedy: Modern English Prose
This is fine as well. Attempts to render terza rima into English have been a complete failure (check out Laurence Binyon's translation for example)

>Paradise Lost: Prose edition
It's already in blank verse, lol. This is fine as well.
