(Still reigns my Marlbro's living Influence there!)
Walking, with Seraph Pow'rs, th'eternal Round,
Th'immortal Captain caught th'imploring Sound:
Where, on War's Theme, with Michael, he conferr'd,
And Cæsar's silent Soul, attentive, heard.
Strait, from unbounded Voids of azure Light,
Where Spirits, freed from Flesh, and bleach'd from Night,
Gliding, from Sun to Sun, new Worlds survey,
That roll, by Millions, and adorn their Way:
Th'all-rev'renc'd Leader call'd a wily Mind,
That left all Tinge of bodied Flegm behind;
One, that had Popes and Jesuits Ardour fir'd;
And slow-soul'd Mufties solemn Spleens inspir'd:
Now, stript and naked, skimm'd th'eternal Space,
Anxious for Office, and in Wait, for Place.
Go, cry'd the Voice Seraphic, faithful! try'd!--
In Fleury's brainy Cells, thy Entrance hide:
Heedful attend, where Thought's dim Embryos lie:
Fan the speck'd Fire--but bend its Flame awry.
Lure him th'Effects of pow'rful Wealth to dread:
And to try'd Traffick turn the Frenchman's Head.","",2009-09-14 19:37:04 UTC

",p. 22 in first edition,4909,"Previous to art's first act--(till then, all vain)
Print the ideal pathos, on the brain:
Feel the thought's image on the eyeball roll;
Behind that window, sits th' attentive Soul:
Wing'd, at her beck, th' obedient Muscles fly,
Bent, or relaxing, to the varied eye:
Press'd, moderate, lenient, Voice's organ'd sound,
To each felt impulse, tones the tuneful round:
Form'd to the nerves, concurring Mein partakes,
So, the mov'd actor moves--and passion shakes.
