The Grassehopper.
XLIII.
Grasshopper thrice-happy! whoSipping the cool morning dew,
Queen-like chirpest all the day
Seated on some verdant spray;
Thine is all what ere earth brings,
Or the howrs with laden wings;
Thee, the Ploughman calls his Joy,
'Cause thou nothing dost destroy:
Thou by all art honour'd; All
Thee the Springs sweet Prophet call;
24
By Apollo art inspir'd,
Agelesse, ever singing, good,
Without passion flesh or blood,
Oh how near thy happy state
Comes the Gods to imitate!
