Spread a rich harvest through their native soil;

A harvest ripening for another reign,

Of which this royal babe may reap the grain.

Enough of early Saints one womb has given,

Enough increased the family of heaven;[313]

Let them for his and our atonement go,

And, reigning blest above, leave him to rule below.

Enough already has the year foreslowed

His wonted course, the sea has overflowed,

The meads were floated with a weeping spring,
