Aurora bright her crystal gates unbarred,
And bridegroom-like forth stept the glorious sun,
When trumpets loud and clarions shrill were heard,
And every one to rouse him fierce begun,
Sweet music to each heart for war prepared,
The soldiers glad by heaps to harness run;
So if with drought
endangered
be their grain,
Poor ploughmen joy when thunders promise rain.

The panting kiss, my own returning;
And thine, on
