And search the fibres of the caves, and they

Shall answer, for our song is of the Clouds 65

And the wind loves them; and the gentle gales—

Which by their aid re-clothe the naked lawn

With annual verdure, and revive the woods,

And moisten the parched lips of thirsty flowers—

Love them; and every idle breeze of air 70

Bends to the favourite burthen. Moon and stars

Keep their most solemn vigils when the Clouds

Watch also, shifting peaceably their place
