Go thou before me still thy circling shores about,

And in this wand’ring maze help to conduct me out:

Direct my course so right, as with thy hand to show

Which way thy forests range, which way thy rivers flow;

Wise Genius, by thy help that so I may descry

How thy fair mountains stand, and how thy vallies lie;

From those clear pearly cliffs which see the morning’s pride,

And check the surly imps of Neptune when they chide,

Unto the big-swoln waves in the[51] Iberian stream,

Where Titan still unyokes his fiery-hoofed team,
