Once more the happy shores without a law

Receive the outlaws whom they lately saw;210

Nature, and Nature's goddess—Woman—woos

To lands where, save their conscience, none accuse;

Where all partake the earth without dispute,[fe]

And bread itself is gathered as a fruit;[366]

Where none contest the fields, the woods, the streams:—

The goldless Age, where Gold disturbs no dreams,

Inhabits or inhabited the shore,

Till Europe taught them better than before;
