Their mightiest powers when Nature none imparts;
And the strong constitution of their praise
Wear out the infection of distemper'd days."
Daniel wrote as follows (vol. ii. p. 373., ed. 1718):
"For these lines are the veins, the arteries
And undecaying life-strings of those hearts,
That still shall pant and still shall exercise
The motion spirit and nature both imparts,
And still with those alive so sympathize,
As nourish'd with their powers, enjoy their parts."
