With boodless spear, that pierces thro' and thro'

Upon stone bed at the dead of night;

When even lips at PIenty's feast turn white

In budding uood, bless the Joyous comer
Whilemy heart cadence in a throng

And fruits, and forest leaves to cheer the earth;
For have seen sad spirits, like dark bowers,
Light up beneathit with graceful mirth.
