light and truth's beams	A
In lucent words my darkling verses dight	B
And wash my earthy mind in thy clear streams	A
That wisdom may descend in fairy dreams	A
All while the jocund hours in thy train	C
Scatter their fancies at thy poet's feet	B
And when thou yields to night thy wide domain	C
Let rays of truth enlight his sleeping brain	C
For brutish Pan in vain might thee assay	D
With tinkling sounds to dash thy nervous verse	E
Sound without sense yet in his rude affray	F
For ignorance is Folly's leasing nurse	E
And love of Folly needs none other's curse	E
Midas the praise hath gain'd of lengthen'd ears	G
For which himself might deem him ne'er the worse	E
To sit in council with his modern peers	G
And judge of tinkling rimes and elegances terse	E
	-
And thou Mercurius that with wing d brow	F
Dost mount aloft into the yielding sky	H
And thro' Heav'n's halls thy airy flight dost throw	F
Entering with holy feet to where on high	H
Jove weighs the counsel of futurity	B
Then laden with eternal fate dost go	F
Down like a falling star from autumn sky	H
And o'er the surface of the silent deep dost fly	H
	-
If thou arrivest at the sandy shore	F
Where nought but envious hissing adders dwell	I
Thy golden rod thrown on t he dusty floor	F
Can charm to harmony with potent spell	I
Such is sweet Eloquence that does dispel	I
Envy and Hate that thirst for human gore	F
And cause in sweet society to dwell	I
Vile savage minds that lurk in lonely cell	I
	-
O Mercury assist my lab'ring sense	J
That round the circle of the world would fly	H
As the wing'd eagle scorns the tow'ry fence	J
Of Alpine hills round his high a ry	F
And searches thro' the corners of the sky	H
Sports in the clouds to hear the thunder's sound	B
And see the wing d lightnings as they fly	H
Then bosom'd in an amber cloud around	B
Plumes his wide wings and seeks Sol's palace high	H
	-
And thou O warrior maid invincible	K
Arm'd with the terrors of Almighty Jove	H
Pallas Minerva maiden terrible	K
Lov'st thou to walk the peaceful solemn grove	H
In solemn gloom of branches interwove	H
Or bear'st thy AEgis o'er the burning field	B
Where like the sea the waves of battle move	H
Or have thy soft piteous eyes beheld	B
The weary wanderer thro' the desert rove	H
Or does th' afflicted man thy heav'nly bosom move	H
