What beauteous prospects overspread the land.

What various flowers to the sight appear,

To deck each season of the rolling year.

Their od'rous scents the opening buds disclose, }

From the blew [sic] violet to the blushing rose, }

And each in its successive order blows. }

Each different fragrance yields a fresh delight,

And various colours charm the ravish'd sight.

Unnumber'd fruits as well as flowers arise,

To please the taste, and to delight the eyes.
