ADDISON'S POETICAL WORKS
AN ODE FOR ST CECILIA'S DAY
GRAND CHORUS
ОглавлениеAnd now the choir complete rejoices,
With trembling strings and melting voices.
The tuneful ferment rises high,
And works with mingled melody:
Quick divisions run their rounds,
A thousand trills and quivering sounds
In airy circles o'er us fly,
Till, wafted by a gentle breeze,
They faint and languish by degrees,
And at a distance die.
