Enchanting gardens 'neath an azure sky,

With twining shrubs, meandring walks, and flow'rs,

And num'rous grottos, porticoes and bow'rs.

When they chanced to pass where all was gay,

From wine's inebriating pow'rful sway,

They wondered at the frolicking around,

And fancied they were got on fairy ground,

Which Mahomet pretended was assigned,

For those to his doctrine were inclined.

To tempt the men and girls to seek the scene,
