Well pleased admires thy varied hues,
Enough for me to deem divine
And can with joy behold
Soft falls the shower, the thunders cease!
And see the messenger of peace
Where Beauty owns celestial grace,
To think that thou art given
A faint display of Heaven!
While others seek the cause to prove,
Thy beauteous form, and wondering gaze
The hand that paints each glowing line;
Of purple, green, and gold.
Enraptured on thy mingled rays
My soul, content with humbler views,
Illumes the eastern skies;
That bids thy beauties rise.
A transient gleam of that bright place
Blest sign of firm unchanging love!
