With the Prince of Parthia, a tragedy

expand section 

Northward fierce Woden stood with terrors crown'd,
And angry Thor threw heedless thunder round.
Fair Friga with her lovely train was seen,
The beauteous rival of the paphian Queen.
Old Merlin struck the lyre, the wond'ring throng
Attended 'round to his prophetic song.
