But soothe our weakness, and dissolve the mind:

Her sorrow flow'd in streams; nor hers alone,

While that he blam'd, he yielded to his own.

Where are the smiles she wore, when she, so late,

Hail'd him great partner of the regal state;

When orient gems around her temples blaz'd,

And bending nations on the glory gaz'd?

'Tis now the queen's command, they both retreat,

To weep with dignity, and mourn in state:

She forms the decent misery with joy,
