Glorious and Great; whose power did divideThe Waves, and made them Walls on either side;
That didst appeare in Cloven-tongues of Fyre;
Divide my Thoughts: and, with thy selfe, inspire
My Soule; O cleave my Tongue, and make it scatter
Various Expressions in a various Matter;
That, like the painfull Bee, I may derive
From sundry Flow'rs, to store my slender Hive:
Yet, may my Thoughts not so divided be,
But they may mixe againe, and fixe in Thee.
