When by Zeus relenting the mandate was revoked	A
Sentencing to exile the bright Sun God	B
Mindful were the ploughmen of who the steer had yoked	A
Who and what a track show'd the upturn'd sod	B
Mindful were the shepherds as now the noon severe	C
Bent a burning eyebrow to brown evetide	B
How the rustic flute drew the silver to the sphere	C
Sister of his own till her rays fell wide	B
God of whom music	D
And song and blood are pure	E
The day is never darken'd	B
That had thee here obscure	E
Chirping none the scarlet cicalas crouch'd in ranks	F
Slack the thistle head piled its down silk gray	G
Scarce the stony lizard suck'd hollows in his flanks	F
Thick on spots of umbrage our drowsed flocks lay	G
Sudden bow'd the chestnuts beneath a wind unheard	B
Lengthen'd ran the grasses the sky grew slate	B
Then amid a swift flight of wing'd seed white as curd	B
Clear of limb a Youth smote the master's gate	B
God of whom music	D
And song and blood are pure	E
The day is never darken'd	B
That had thee here obscure	E
	-
Water first of singers o'er rocky mount and mead	B
First of earthly singers the sun loved rill	H
Sang of him and flooded the ripples on the reed	B
Seeking whom to waken and what ear fill	H
Water sweetest soother to kiss a wound and cool	I
Sweetest and divinest the sky born brook	J
Chuckled with a whimper and made a mirror pool	I
Round the guest we welcomed the strange hand shook	J
God of whom music	D
And song and blood are pure	E
The day is never darken'd	B
That had thee here obscure	E
	-
Many swarms of wild bees descended on our fields	K
Stately stood the wheatstalk with head bent high	L
Big of heart we labour'd at storing mighty yields	K
Wool and corn and clusters to make men cry	L
Hand like rush'd the vintage we strung the bellied skins	M
Plump and at the sealing the Youth's voice rose	N
Maidens clung in circle on little fists their chins	N
Gentle beasties through push'd a cold long nose	N
God of whom music	D
And song and blood are pure	E
The day is never darken'd	B
That had thee here obscure	E
	-
Foot to fire in snowtime we trimm'd the slender shaft	B
Often down the pit spied the lean wolf's teeth	O
Grin against his will trapp'd by masterstrokes of craft	B
Helpless in his froth wrath as green logs seethe	P
Safe the tender lambs tugg'd the teats and winter sped	B
Whirl'd before the crocus the year's new gold	B
Hung the hooky beak up aloft the arrowhead	B
Redden'd through his feathers for our dear fold	B
God of whom music	D
And song and blood are pure	E
The day is never darken'd	B
That had thee here obscure	E
	-
Tales we drank of giants at war with gods above	Q
Rocks were they to look on and earth climb'd air	R
Tales of search for simples and those who sought of love	Q
Ease because the creature was all too fair	R
Pleasant ran our thinking that while our work was good	B
Sure as fruits for sweat would the praise come fast	B
He that wrestled stoutest and tamed the billow brood	B
Danced in rings with girls like a sail flapp'd mast	B
God of whom music	D
And song and blood are pure	E
The day is never darken'd	B
That had thee here obscure	E
	-
Lo the herb of healing when once the herb is known	S
Shines in shady woods bright as new sprung flame	T
Ere the string was tighten'd we heard the mellow tone	S
After he had taught how the sweet sounds came	T
Stretch'd about his feet labour done 'twas as you see	N
Red pomegranates tumble and burst hard rind	B
So began contention to give delight and be	N
Excellent in things aim'd to make life kind	B
God of whom music	D
And song and blood are pure	E
The day is never darken'd	B
That had thee here obscure	E
	-
You with shelly horns rams and promontory goats	N
You whose browsing beards dip in coldest dew	B
Bulls that walk the pastures in kingly flashing coats	N
Laurel ivy vine wreathed for feasts not few	B
You that build the shade roof and you that court the rays	N
You that leap besprinkling the rock stream rent	B
He has been our fellow the morning of our days	N
Us he chose for housemates and this way went	B
God of whom music	D
And song and blood are pure	E
The day is never darken'd	B
That had thee here obscure	E
