Cecilia, more than all the muses skilled; Ph&oelig;bus himself must to her yield. And at her feet lay down His golden harp and laurel crown. The soft enervate lyre is drowned In the deep organ's more majestic sound. In peals the swelling notes ascend the skies; Perpetual breath the swelling notes supplies, And lasting as her name, who formed the tuneful frame.
