from On a foule Morning, being then to take a journey.
Where art thou Sol, while thus the blind-fold Day
Staggers out of the East, looses her way
Stumbling on Night? Rouze thee Illustrious Youth,
And let no dull mists choake the Lights faire growth.
Point here thy Beames; ô glance on yonder flockes,
And make their fleeces Golden as thy lockes.
Unfold thy faire front, and there shall appeare
Full glory, flaming in her owne free spheare.
Gladnesse shall cloath the Earth, we will instile
The face of things, an universall smile.
Say to the Sullen Morne, thou com'st to court her;
And wilt command proud Zephirus to sport her
With wanton gales: his balmy breath shall licke
The tender drops which tremble on her cheeke;
Which rarifyed, and in a gentle raine
On those delicious bankes distill'd againe
Shall rise in a sweet Harvest; which discloses
Two ever blushing beds of new-borne Roses.
– Richard Crashaw, The Delights of the Muses (1646)
