Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPDQRS DTDUVGVWXYZA2| Ye powers unseen to whom the bards of Greece | A |
| Erected altars ye who to the mind | B |
| More lofty views unfold and prompt the heart | C |
| With more divine emotions if erewhile | D |
| Not quite unpleasing have my votive rites | E |
| Of you been deem'd when oft this lonely seat | F |
| To you I consecrated then vouchsafe | G |
| Here with your instant energy to crown | H |
| My happy solitude It is the hour | I |
| When most I love to invoke you and have felt | J |
| Most frequent your glad ministry divine | K |
| The air is calm the sun's unveiled orb | L |
| Shines in the middle heaven the harvest round | M |
| Stands quiet and among the golden sheaves | N |
| The reapers lie reclin'd the neighbouring groves | O |
| Are mute nor even a linnet's random strain | P |
| Echoeth amid the silence Let me feel | D |
| Your influence ye kind powers Aloft in heaven | Q |
| Abide ye or on those transparent clouds | R |
| Pass ye from hill to hill or on the shades | S |
| Which yonder elms cast o'er the lake below | D |
| Do you converse retir'd From what lov'd haunt | T |
| Shall I expect you Let me once more feel | D |
| Your influence o ye kind inspiring powers | U |
| And I will guard it well nor shall a thought | V |
| Rise in my mind nor shall a passion move | G |
| Across my bosom unobserv'd unstor'd | V |
| By faithful memory and then at some | W |
| More active moment will I call them forth | X |
| Anew and join them in majestic forms | Y |
| And give them utterance in harmonious strains | Z |
| That all mankind shall wonder at your sway | A2 |
