(A theme that would befit the Delphian lyre)

Give way, that I in silence may admire.

Is not her sleep like that of innocents,

Sweet as herself; and is she not more fair,

Almost in death, than are the ornaments

Of fruitful trees, which newly budding are?

She is, and tell it, Truth, when she shall lie

And sleep for ever, for she cannot die.
