ON PEACE
Fair peace, how lovely, how delightful thou, 
By whose wide tide, the kindred sons of men
Like brothers live, in amity combin'd, 
And unsuspicious faith; while honest toil 
Gives every joy, and to those joys a right, 
Which idle, barbarous repine but usurps.
. . . [4 lines]
Who bids the trumpet hush his horrid clang, 
Nor blow the giddy nations into rage;'
. . . [17 more lines, ending]
'Till all the happy nations catch the song.
