Shall sons of Ether, shall the blood of Heaven,
Set up their hopes on earth, and stable here,
With brutal acquiescence in the mire?
Lorenzo, no! They shall be nobly pain'd;
The glorious foreigners, distress'd, shall sigh
On thrones; and thou congratulate the sigh:
Man's misery declares him born for bliss:
His anxious heart asserts the truth I sing,
And gives the sceptic in his head the lie.
Set up their hopes on earth, and stable here,

The glorious foreigners, distress'd, shall sigh
On thrones; and thou congratulate the sigh:

His anxious heart asserts the truth I sing,
And gives the sceptic in his head the lie.
