Now, while Phœbus riding high,

Gives luster to the land and sky!

Grongar Hill invites my song,

Draw the landscape bright and strong;

Grongar, in whose mossy cells,

Sweetly musing Quiet dwells;

Grongar, in whose silent shade,

For the modest Muses made,

So oft I have, the evening still,

At the fountain of a rill,
