VOCAL ENCSANTftESS. 79
How charming the fight, when Aurora firft dawns.
To fee the bright beagles fpread over the lawns ;
To welcome the fun, now returning from reft,
There mattins they chant as they merrily qusuV
Then hark in the morn, erV,
But oh ! how each bofom with tranfport it fills,
To flart juft as Phoebus peeps over the hills ;
While joyous from valley to valley refounds
The fhouts of the hunters, and cry of the hounds.
Then hark in the morn, &f.
See how the brave hunters v/ith courage elate,
Fly hedges and ditches, or top the barr'd gate ;
Borne by their bold courfers, no danger they fear 5
And give to the winds all vexation and care,
Then hark in the morn, &c.
Ye cits for the chace, quit the joys cf the town,
And fcorn the dull pleafure of fleeping in down ;
Uncertain your toil, or for honour, or wealth,
Ours ftill is repaid with contentment and health-.
Then hark in the morn, t$c.
