For even the ears of such as have no skill,

Perceive a discord, and conceive offence,

And knowing not what's good, yet find the ill!

And though this Sense, first, gentle Music found;

Her proper object is the Speech of Man!

But that speech chiefly which GOD's heralds sound,

When their tongues utter, what his Spirit did pen.

Our Eyes have lids, our Ears still ope we see!

Quickly to hear, how every tale is proved;

Our Eyes still move, our Ears unmoved be!
