Thus parting, each for the other's danger grieved,

The shore the king, and seas the prince received.—

Go, injured hero! while propitious gales,

Soft as thy consort's breath, inspire thy sails;

Well may she trust her beauties on a flood,

Where thy triumphant fleets so oft have rode!

Safe on thy breast reclined, her rest be deep,

Rocked, like a Nereid, by the waves asleep;

While happiest dreams her fancy entertain,

And to Elysian fields convert the main!
