Exempt from tumult and from noise,

Where Kings forget the troubles of their reigns,

And are almost as happy as their humble swains,

By feeling that they live:

Behold th' indulgent Prince is come

To view the conquests of His mercy shown

To the new Proselytes of His mighty town,

10And men and angels bid Him welcome home.

Not with an helmet or a glitt'ring spear

Does He appear;
