Antistrophe II.
In fair Sicilia's rich domain,Where flow'rs and fruits eternal blow,
Where plenty spreads her peaceful reign,
And seas surround, and fountains flow,
Bright religion lifts her eye,
Wand'ring thro' the kindred-sky.
Hail thou, everlasting Jove,
Parent of th' Aonian quire;
Touch my raptur'd soul with love,
Warm me with celestial fire!
