And would we aught behold of higher worth, Than that inanimate cold world allowed To the poor loveless ever-anxious crowd, Ah! from the soul itself must issue forth A light, a glory, a fair luminous cloud Enveloping the Earth And from the soul itself must there be sent A sweet and potent voice, of its own birth, Of all sweet sounds the life and element!

Such is the aspect of this shore ; Tis Greece, but living Greece no more!

Ma ella s'è beata, e ciò non ode: Con l'altre prime creature lieta Volve sua spera, e beata si gode.
