________________Nec intelligunt,
Quam brev sit Juventutis e Vitae Tempus datum Mortalibus.
  Assist my muse, to tune the mournful lyre,
  While Mira does the tender theme inspire;
  I sing in her sweet praise, who lives no more,
  Alas! Mankind your common loss deplore;
. . . [40 more lines, followed by the refrain:]
  Alas! Mankind your common loss deplore,
  For Mira matchless Mira is no more.
