As erst thy roaring son with eddying gale

Whirl'd Orithyia from her native vale—

So, while Lucretian wonders I rehearse,

Augusta's sons shall patronize my verse.

I sing of Atoms, whose creative brain,

With eddying impulse, built new Drury Lane;

Not to the labours of subservient man,

To no young Wyatt appertains the plan;

We mortals stalk, like horses in a mill,
