| Citation | NYWJ.741.037 30 Nov 1741:32 (148 [=418]) THE ECSTASY [1] What sacred raptures fire my breast, And snatch me to the skies, While the low earth stretch'd out immense A spacious prospect lies! . . . [24 lines] Methinks I hear th' harmonious strife; And thunder of choir, While to the height of gratitude The heav'nly hosts aspire. [2] Hark! how the floating anthems swell, And fill the realms above; No wonder, when th'exalted theme Is God, and and love. [signed] J. Dinsdale. |
