And work with pleasure, while they cheer the eye

With glowing purple of the Tyrian dye:

Or justly intermixing shades with light,

Their colorings insensibly unite

As when a shower, transpierced with sunny rays,

Its mighty arch along the heaven displays;

From whence a thousand different colors rise

Whose fine transition cheats the clearest eyes;

So like the intermingled shading seems

And only differs in the last extremes.
