So temp'rate were, that no extreams
Attended Them to cloud our Day,
and our Credulity betray,
So temp'rate were, that no extreams
Attended Them to cloud our Day,

Who could be such a Slave to Fear,
to think a Tempest could be near
So Fair an Omen? Who'd not dare
Danger it self, and Anchor there?

Who would not think himself secure,
and safety to himself assure,

But (oh) it takes the Lightnings form,
and I'm betray'd into a Storm.
