Let playful Pendules quick vibration feel,
While silent Cyclois rests upon her wheel;
Let Hydrostatics,[65] simpering as they go,
Lead the light Naiads on fantastic toe;
Let shrill Acoustics tune the tiny lyre;
With Euclid sage fair Algebra conspire;
The obedient pulley strong Mechanics ply,
And wanton Optics roll the melting eye!
I see the fair fantastic forms appear,
The flaunting drapery and the languid leer;
