Superb and sole, upon a plumed spray
That o'er the general leafage boldly grew,
He summ'd the woods in song; or typic drew
The watch of hungry hawks, the lone dismay
Of languid doves when long their lovers stray,
And all birds' passion-plays that

At morn in brake or bosky avenue.

XXXIII
Full many a glorious morning have I seen
Flatter the mountain tops with
sovereign
eye,
Kissing with golden face the meadows green,
Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy;
Anon permit the basest clouds to ride
With ugly rack on his celestial face,
And from the forlorn world his visage hide,
Stealing unseen to west with this disgrace:
Even so my sun one early morn did shine,
With all triumphant splendour on my brow;
But out!

by an 'Epistle from a Nobleman to a Doctor of Divinity', which also
appeared anonymously, but was well known to be the work of Lord Hervey.

And when I mark Love's promise wither'd lie,

Them and my thoughts to that sublim'd respect
And conscience unto priesthood; 'tis not need

Wiser conclusions in me, since I know
