RECITATIVE ACCOMPANIED.

So spake our Father penitent, nor Eve
Felt less remorse. They forthwith to the place
Repairing, where He judg'd them, prostrate fell
Before Him reverent, and both confess'd
Humbly their faults, and pardon beg'd, with tears
Wat'ring the ground, and with their sighs the air
Frequenting, sent from hearts contrite, in sign
Of sorrow unfeign'd, and humiliation meek.
