Stay thy cloudy ebon chair,

Wherein [thou ridest with Hecat’], and befriend 135

Us thy vowed priests, till utmost end

Of all thy dues be done, and none left out

Ere the blabbing eastern scout,

[The nice Morn] on the Indian steep,

[From her cabined loop-hole peep], 140

And to the tell-tale Sun [descry]

Our concealed solemnity.

Come, knit hands, and beat the ground
