Who upon the trees' tall branches | B |
By a modest draught inspired | C |
Singing like a monarch livest | C |

All that on the plains thou seest | C |
All that by the hours is brought thee | E |

Born a creature fleshless bloodless | I |
Though Earth's daughter free from suff'ring | J |
To the gods e'en almost equal | K |
