Above, Andromeda’s fierce sire

Glows in the skies with splendid fire;

Now Procyon rages, and the star

Of the mad Lion seen afar;

The sun brings back the time of drought,

The wearied hind his flocks hath brought

Languid with heat to shade and stream

There; where secure in tangled brake

The rough Sylvanus shuns day’s gleam,

And winds the silent bank forsake.
