From her each better impulse should take birth—

For her my song should raise and cheer mankind,

And I would sow her influence through the earth.

And, as by great attraction are combined

With waters, flame with flame—and though confined

By bounds material, each to other tend—

Released from the division of our clay

Again might be united friend with friend.

For then, immortal and beyond decay,
