And gave her vigour to exert her rays:

Happy old man, whose worth all mankind knows,

Except thyself, who charitably shows

The ready road to Virtue and to Praise,

10The way to many long and happy days;

The noble art of generous Piety,

And how to compass an Euthanasy!

Hence did he learn the skill of living well,

The bright Thealma was his oracle;

Inspir'd by Her, he knows no anxious cares
