V.

And the arching groves responsive rang,
As the heav'nly chorists soar'd and sang;
120

And out of the soft South-Western Land
A freshening breeze came in, and fan'd
The mists to motion, and toucht the trees
To joyous and beautiful harmonies.
Then cloudlets form'd, and sail'd away
Like tilting ships on a rolling bay;
And over the landscape, erewhile dun,
Flasht brightly the beams of the slanting sun;
And the splendor and beauty of earth and sky.
Reflecting the Majesty throned on high,
Proclaim'd, as the glory spread abroad,
The goodness and power and love of God.
