¶Liedtext

In awful pause, while Heaven's revenge is slow, Jove but prepares to strike a fiercer blow. That day shall come, that great avenging day, When Troy's proud glories in the dust shall lay; When Priam's pow'rs and Priam's self shall fall, And one prodigious ruin swallow all. I see the god, already, from the pole Bare his red arm and bid the thunder roll; I see th'Eternal all his fury shed, And shake his aegis on their guilty head.
