Of lightning hurrying through the heav'ns—is done.

But since that fated word the {princely } sage,

{chief—the}

Prime boast and envy of a glorious age,

Droops, under burthen of repentant sorrow,

Depress'd to-day, and unrelieved to-morrow.

He hath provoked his fate:

Ever aspiring to the topmost height,

He shuts his ear against the call

Of Reason, therefore let him fall. ms.
