Have hemm'd thy faultless weakness in;

Near thy sinless bed black Guilt

Her discordant house hath built,

And fill'd it with her monstrous brood—

Sights, by thee not understood—

Sights of fear, and of distress,

That pass a harmless infant's guess

But the clouds, that overcast

Thy young morning, may not last;

Soon shall arrive the rescuing hour
