¶Liedtext

Come, fairest nymph, resume thy reign, Bring all the graces in thy train; With balmy breath, and flowery tread, Rise from thy soft ambrosial bed; Where, in elysian slumber bound, Embow'ring myrtles veil thee round. Awake, in all thy glories drest, Recall the zephyrs from the west; Restore the sun, revive the skies, At mine, and Nature's call, arise. Great Nature's self upbraids thy stay, And misses her accustom'd May. See! all her works demand thy aid, The labours of Pomona fade: A plaint is heard from ev'ry tree; Each budding flow'ret calls for thee; The birds forget to love and sing; With storms alone the forests ring. Come then, with Pleasure at thy side, Diffuse the vernal spirit wide; Create, where'er thou turn'st thy eye, Peace, Plenty, Love, and Harmony.
