Hesperus! Hesperus! &c.

III.

Hesperus! Hesperus! holding thy way

Lone, but serene, 'tween the day and the night,

Guide all our hearts with the same even sway,

Soften each sorrow and calm each delight.

Hesperus! Hesperus! &c.

IV.

Hesperus! Hesperus! star of repose!

Herald of rest to the labours of day!
