TO HARMONY.
Daughter of heaven, whose magicle call, 
From nothing, bade this wonderous all
In beauteous order rise;
Thou who at nature's earliest birth, 
. . . [57 lines]
All nature celebrate thy praise, 
And dryads, fauns, and satyrs raise, 
The hymeneal song.
So when thy Orpheus strikes the strings, 
Then musick waves her purple wings, 
And undulates around;
The groves, with all their echoes mourn
And sympathetick rocks return
The inexpressive sound.
