183 With such ethereal sweetness ? whence her voice Inform'd at will to raise or to depress The impassion'd soul ? and whence the robes of light Which thus invest her with more lovely pomp Than Fancy can describe ? Whence but from Thee, Source divine of ever-flowing love, And thy unmeasur'd goodness ? Not content With every food of life to nourish man, o By kind illusions of the wondering sense, Thou mak'st all Nature beauty to his eye, Or music to his ear : well-pleas'd, he scans The goodly pr...ospect ; and, with inward smiles, Treads the gay verdure of the painted plain; Beholds the azure canopy of heaven, And living lamps that over-arch his head With more than regal splendour ; bends his ears To the full choir of water, air, and earth ; Nor heeds the pleasing error of his thought, wo Nor doubts the painted green or azure arch, Nor questions more the music's mingling sounds, Than space or motion or eternal time ; So sweet he feels their influence to attract The fixed soul, to brighten the dull glooms Of care, and make the destin'd road of life Delightful to his feet.
