The Shamrock | ||

Thus while the Hero sings, each cavern'd RockEchoes the Strain, delighted: All around

Dryads, and Naiads, the sweet Nymphs who love
The Hill's blue Summit, and the Powers who rule
The trackless Realms of Air, in Concert full,
The Pæan swell; and Nature's general Voice
Bursts forth in choral Song.—
