130, l. 15: for stream r. brook.
133, l. 6: for thy r. my; and instead of lines 14, 15, and 16,
read as follows:
How soon to re-unite! And see! they meet,
Each in the other lost and found: and, see!
Placeless, as spirits, one soft Water-sun
Throbbing within them, Heart at once and Eye!
With its soft neighbourhood of filmy Clouds,
The Stains and Shadings of forgotten Tears,
Dimness o'erswum with lustre!—Such the hour
Of deep enjoyment, following Love's brief feuds!
But hark! &c.—and for came r. come.

O! the one Life, within us and abroad,
Which meets all Motion, and becomes its soul,
A Light in Sound, a sound-like power in Light,
Rhythm in all Thought, and Joyance every where—
Methinks, it should have been impossible
Not to love all things in a world so fill'd,
Where the breeze warbles and the mute still Air
Is Music slumbering on its instrument!
And thus, my Love! &c.
180: for the last line but four substitute
Praise, praise it, O my soul! oft as thou scann'st.

—— l. 6: substitute Friends whom I never more may meet again.

276. The metre of this ode, especially in the fifth line of
each stanza, is written with a foreknowledge of the Tune,
and must therefore be read as it would be sung.

The substance from its shadow. Infinite Love,
Whose Latence is the plenitude of All,
Thou with retracted Beams, and Self-eclipse
Veiling revealest thy eternal Sun.
283, l. 20: for rebellions r. rebellious
287, l. 12: for mortal ministers r. human ministers.
298, l. 1: for blended with the clouds r. looming on the mist.

The power of Justice, like a name all Light,
Shone from thy brow;
