What can MUSICK's Pow'r controul?When Nature's sleeping Soul
Perceiv'd th'Enchanting Sound,
It wak'd, and shook off foul Deformity;
The mighty Melody
Nature's secret Chains unbound;
And Earth arose, and Seas, and Sky.
Aloft expanded Spheres were slung,
With Shining Luminaries hung;
A Vast Creation stood display'd,
By Heav'n's Inspiring MUSICK made.
