¶Lyrics / Text

While fools their time in stormy strife employ, Be ours engag'd in union, peace and joy. Thus the blest gods the genial day prolong In feasts ambrosial and celestial song. Apollo tunes the lyre; the muses round With voice alternate aid the silver sound. Wisely, we imitate the pow'rs divine; Peace at our heart, and pleasure our design.
