This is my fair resort, the Summer Sun

Is rising there, the ocean gleams like gold,

On which his rolling chariot burns like fire.

Ten thousand birds are up in branch and air,

To hail this coronation, every day

Repeated from the first to last of time.

It is a glorious sight, and worthy all

That has been said or sung of it in verse.

But yet 'tis dim to me, Odora's eyes

Have cast that glory in a dull eclipse,
