How blest, supremely blest, the favoured Race
Who lived and feasted in that glorious place.
Where all were rich and splendid, fine and gay; }
They had no Wants to fear, no Cost to pay, }
But all day long were pleased and feasted every day. }
But what, he thought with fresh Surprise, are they
Whom even these with all their Pride obey;
Whoso greater Pleasures to themselves are known,
And who can call what they behold their own?
He had no Words such pleasures to express;
