His wearied billows from their vieing play,

And lull them to a cradle calm: but thou,

With everlasting, undecaying tide

Dost rest not night nor day.

The morning stars,

When first they sang o'er young creation's birth,

Heard thy deep anthem; and those wrecking fires

That wait the archangel's signal, to dissolve

The solid earth, shall find Jehovah's name

Graven, as with a thousand spears,
