And Heaven above, and earth beneath

Sweet visions the >. that sleep by ,lay.

Around the suns descending throne =
And 1 have striv'd in many n song
To paw my homage at Thy shrine,
a worthless Offering, Tor throng

What though the idle wreath would fade

Son gather a To oblivionS shade,
Not less the task would soo;he my mind.

Nor thought on Rught that crossed INV bliss,

When boyhoors hopes were wild aud higlr
AMI englet tkc. fix'd my gaze

Those hopes are blasted and decaycd

Still still hear the voice within,
The striking voice that cries aspirc -

His crimes, like ghosts, appear.
And, aye, some demon in my sight
Displays what wreaths for others bloom,

Oh, Poesy! thou too hast now

In swift cSsiun, brigh; and far;
