Pausanias, ambitioning the sovereignty of Greece, bargains with Xerxes for his daughter in marriage.

Nor saw the snake that ambushed for his prey.

In gelid caves with horrid gloom arrayed.

The patriot's honors and the poet's bays.

He beamed, the daystar of the rising age.

There pride sits blazoned on th' unmeaning brow.

White these blest sounds my ravished ear assail.

The rosy blush of love.

Where the bold cape its warning forehead rears.

A bowery maze that shades the purple streams.

Let oft good humor, mild and gay, Gild the calm evening of your day.

No man e'er felt the halter draw With good opinion of the law.

And for a villain's quick conversion A pillory can outpreach a parson.

Nor less availed his optic sleight, And Scottish gift of second-sight.

Where commerce triumphed on the favoring gales.

While truant Jove, in infant pride, Played barefoot on Olympus' side.

There pride sits blazoned on the unmeaning brow.

Warbling sweet the nuptial lay.

His purple robes waved careless to the winds.

And while above he spends his breath, The yawning audience nod beneath.
