Suppose an angel, darting through the air,

20Should there encounter a religious prayer

Mounting to Heaven, that Intelligence

Should for a Sunday-suit thy breath condense

Into a body.—Let me crack a string

In venturing higher; were the note I sing

Above Heaven's Ela, should I then decline,

And with a deep-mouthed gamut sound the line

From pole to pole, I could not reach her worth,

Nor find an epithet to set it forth.
