Thy living beams, infilling all the scene,

Burned in each orb and knit the space between

To ether vault and circumambient air,

That breathed thy life and shed it everywhere;

Whose power, pervading all, attracts, unites,

Binds with a lasting link, sustains, enhances,

And adds to all a beauty that invites

The liquid light of thy love-lingering glances!

Come! glorious Power! and from thy golden tresses

Shake down on us the blossoms of the Spring;
