    The wond'ring forests soon should dance again;
    The moving mountains hear the powerful call.
    And headlong streams hand listening in their fall!

With musics of all sorts, and songs composed
To her unworthiness. It nothing steads us
To chide him from our eaves, for he persists
As if his life lay on't.
