The thunders breaking at her feet;
Above her shook the starry lights;
She heard the torrents meet
There in her place she did rejoice.

But fragments of her mighty voice
Come rolling on the wind
Then slept she down thro' town and field 1
To mingle with the human race,
AMI part 10y part to men reveald
The fullness Of her face

From her isle-altar gazing down, 4
Who, God-like, grasps the triple forks, I
And, King-li wears the crown.
Her open eyes desire the truth, I.
The wisdom Of a thousand years
Is in them May perpetual youth 4
Keep dry their light from tears;
That her fair form may stand and shine,
Make bright our days and light our dreams,
Turning 10 scorn with lips divine
The falsehood Of extremes!
