Assumes her lucent, annual reign:

Then what a dark and dismal clod,

Forsaken by the Sons of God,

Seems this sad world, to those which march

Across the high, illumined arch,

And with their brightness draw me forth

To scan the splendors of the North!

I see the Dragon, as he toils

With Ursa in his shining coils,

And mark the Huntsman lift his shield,
