HYMN.
YE dear, and honour'd dead, with whom
I pass my visionary days;
Enamour'd of the sacred tomb,
Where bright the lamps of virtue blaze!
I pass my visionary days;
Enamour'd of the sacred tomb,
Where bright the lamps of virtue blaze!
On me, ye gentle spirits, smile,
While I discharge affection's trust!
And all my pangs of grief beguile
With zealous duty to your dust.
While I discharge affection's trust!
And all my pangs of grief beguile
With zealous duty to your dust.
Manfredi.
