Bards of Passion and of MirthA
Ye have left your souls on earthA
Have ye souls in heaven tooB
Double lived in regions newB
Yes and those of heaven communeC
With the spheres of sun and moonC
With the noise of fountains wound'rousD
And the parle of voices thund'rousD
With the whisper of heaven's treesD
And one another in soft easeD
-
Seated on Elysian lawnsD
Brows'd by none but Dian's fawnsD
Underneath large blue bells tentedB
Where the daisies are rose scentedB
And the rose herself has gotB
Perfume which on earth is notB
Where the nightingale doth singE
Not a senseless tranced thingE
But divine melodious truthF
Philosophic numbers smoothG
Tales and golden historiesD
Of heaven and its mysteriesD
-
Thus ye live on high and thenH
On the earth ye live againH
And the souls ye left behind youB
Teach us here the way to find youB
Where your other souls are joyingE
Never slumber'd never cloyingE
Here your earth born souls still speakI
To mortals of their little weekI
Of their sorrows and delightsD
Of their passions and their spitesD
Of their glory and their shameJ
What doth strengthen and what maimJ
Thus ye teach us every dayB
Wisdom though fled far awayB
-
Bards of Passion and of MirthA
Ye have left your souls on earthA
Ye have souls in heaven tooB
Double lived in regions newB
