True pleasure breathes not city air | B |
Nor in Art's temples dwells | C |
In palaces and towers where | B |
The voice of Grandeur dwells | C |
- | |
No Seek it where high Nature holds | D |
Her court 'mid stately groves | E |
Where she her majesty unfolds | D |
And in fresh beauty moves | F |
- | |
Where thousand birds of sweetest song | G |
The wildly rushing storm | H |
And hundred streams which glide along | G |
Her mighty concert form | H |
- | |
Go where the woods in beauty sleep | I |
Bathed in pale Luna's light | J |
Or where among their branches sweep | I |
The hollow sounds of night | J |
- | |
Go where the warbling nightingale | K |
In gushes rich doth sing | L |
Till all the lonely quiet vale | K |
With melody doth ring | L |
- | |
Go sit upon a mountain steep | I |
And view the prospect round | M |
The hills and vales the valley's sweep | I |
The far horizon bound | M |
- | |
Then view the wide sky overhead | N |
The still deep vault of blue | O |
The sun which golden light doth shed | N |
The clouds of pearly hue | O |
- | |
And as you gaze on this vast scene | P |
Your thoughts will journey far | Q |
Though hundred years should roll between | P |
On Time's swift passing car | Q |
- | |
To ages when the earth was yound | N |
When patriarchs grey and old | N |
The praises of their god oft sung | R |
And oft his mercies told | N |
- | |
You see them with their beards of snow | S |
Their robes of ample form | H |
Their lives whose peaceful gentle flow | S |
Felt seldom passion's storm | H |
- | |
Then a calm solemn pleasure steals | T |
Into your inmost mind | N |
A quiet aura your spirit feels | T |
A softened stillness kind | N |
