Of Chiassi rolls the gathering melody,

When Eolus hath from his cavern loosed

The dripping south. Already had my steps,

Tho' slow, so far into that ancient wood

Transported me, I could not ken the place

Where I had enter'd; when behold! my path

Was bounded by a rill, which to the left

With little rippling waters bent the grass

That issued from its brink.

and this of the heavenly Paradise:
