In Heaven Ambition cannot dwell, Nor Avarice in the vaults of Hell ; Earthly these passions of the Earth, They perish where they have their birth ; But Love is indestructible. Its holy flame for ever burneth, From Heaven it came, to Heaven returneth...

An Angel's head, with visual eye, Through trackless space, directs its chosen way; Nor aid of wing nor foot nor fin Requires to voyage o'er the obedient sky. Smooth as the swan, when not a breeze at even Disturbs the surface of the silver stream, Through air and sunshine sails the Ship of Heaven.
Página 8 - Woe! woe! Nealliny, The young Nealliny! They strip her ornaments away. Bracelet and anklet, ring, and chain, and zone; Around her neck they leave The marriage knot alone, . . That marriage band, which when Yon waning moon was young, Around her virgin neck With bridal joy was hung.
