HYMN TO HARMONY.
Daughter of heaven, whose magick call, 
From nothing, bade this wonderous all
In beauteous order rise;
Thou, who, at nature's earliest birth, 
. . . [60 lines]
And driads, fans, and satyrs, raise
The hymenal song.
So when Orpheus strikes the strings, 
Then musick waves her purple wings, 
And undulates around;
The groves with all their echoes mourn, 
And sympathetick rocks return
The inexpressive sound.
