| As now of the great SUN serene to weave | A |
| Thy fragrant chaplets in poetic state | B |
| To call the jocund Hours on thee to wait | B |
| Bringing each day at morn at noon at eve | A |
| His mild illuminations Nymph no more | C |
| Is thine to mourn beneath the scanty shade | D |
| Of half blown foliage shivering to deplore | C |
| Thy garlands immature thy rites unpaid | D |
| Meads dropt with gold again to thee belong | E |
| Soft gales luxuriant bowers and wood land song | E |
