¶Liedtext

With thee, sweet Hope ! resides the heavenly light That pours remotest rapture on the sight: Thine is the charm of life's bewildered way, That calls each slumbering passion into play. Waked by thy touch, I see the sister band, On tiptoe watching, start at thy command, And fly where'er thy mandate bids them steer, To pleasure's path, or glory's bright career. Primeval Hope , the Aonian Muses say, When Man and Nature mourned their first decay; When every form of death, and every woe, Shot from malignant stars to earth below; When Murder bared his arm, and rampant War Yoked the red dragons of her iron car; When Peace and Mercy, banished from the plain, Sprung on the viewless winds to heaven again; All, all forsook the friendless guilty mind, But Hope , the charmer, lingered still behind. Auspicious Hope! in thy sweet garden grow Wreaths for each toil, a charm for every woe: Won by their sweets, in Nature's languid hour The way-worn pilgrim seeks thy summer bower; There, as the wild bee murmurs on the wing, What peaceful dreams thy handmaid spirits bring! What viewless forms th'Aeolian organ play, And sweep the furrowed lines of anxious thought away!
