The breezy call of incense-breathing morn,

The swallow twittering from the straw-built shed, 'The cock's shrill clarion, or the echoing horn, No more shall rouse them from their lowly bed.

20

For them no more the blazing hearth shall burn,
Or busy housewife ply her evening care;
No children run to lisp their sire's return,
Or climb his knees the envied kiss to share.
