I	A
With sordid floods the wintry Urn	B
Hath stain'd fair Richmond's level green	C
Her naked hill the Dryads mourn	D
No longer a poetic scene	C
No longer there thy raptur'd eye	A
The beauteous forms of earth or sky	A
Surveys as in their Author's mind	E
And London shelters from the year	F
Those whom thy social hours to share	G
The Attic Muse design'd	E
	-
II	A
From Hampstead's airy summit me	H
Her guest the city shall behold	I
What day the people's stern decree	H
To unbelieving kings is told	I
When common men the dread of fame	J
Adjudg'd as one of evil name	J
Before the sun the anointed head	K
Then seek thou too the pious town	L
With no unworthy cares to crown	L
That evening's awful shade	M
	-
III	A
Deem not i call thee to deplore	N
The sacred martyr of the day	O
By fast and penitential lore	N
To purge our ancient guilt away	O
For this on humble faith i rest	P
That still our advocate the priest	Q
From heavenly wrath will save the land	R
Nor ask what rites our pardon gain	S
Nor how his potent sounds restrain	S
The thunderer's lifted hand	R
	-
IV	T
No Hardinge peace to church and state	U
That evening let the Muse give law	V
While i anew the theme relate	U
Which my first youth inamor'd saw	V
Then will i oft explore thy thought	W
What to reject which Locke hath taught	W
What to pursue in Virgil's lay	O
Till hope ascends to loftiest things	X
Nor envies demagogues or kings	X
Their frail and vulgar sway	O
	-
V	T
O vers'd in all the human frame	J
Lead thou where'er my labor lies	Y
And English fancy's eager flame	J
To Grecian purity chastize	Y
While hand in hand at wisdom's shrine	Z
Beauty with truth i strive to join	A2
And grave assent with glad applause	Y
To paint the story of the soul	B2
And Plato's visions to controul	B2
By Verulamian laws	Y
