192 THE MUSICAL
Will the flocks from their paftures be led,
Muft the herds go wild ftraying abroad,
Shall the looms be all ftopp'd in each fhed,
And the mips be all moor'd in each road,
Muft the arts be all fcatter'd around,
And fhall commerce grow fick of it's tidc^
Muft religion expire on the ground,
And fhall virtue fink down by her fide.
