Although invisible as Echo’s self,[132]

Is wheeling hitherward. Thanks, happy Creature,

For this unthought-of greeting!

While allured

From vale to hill, from hill to vale led on,

We have pursued, through various lands, a long 10

And pleasant course; flower after flower has blown,

Embellishing the ground that gave them birth

With aspects novel to my sight; but still

Most fair, most welcome, when they drank the dew
