The nightly hunter, lifting a bright eye

Up towards the crescent moon, with grateful heart

Called on the lovely wanderer who bestowed

That timely light to share his joyous sport;

And hence, a beaming goddess with her nymphs

Across the lawn, and thro’ the darksome grove,

Not unaccompanied with tuneful notes,

By echo multiplied from rock or cave,

Swept in the storm of chase; as moon and stars

Glance rapidly along the clouded Heaven
