AN ATTEMPT AT TRANSLATION.

Could we the sky's unbounded range,

To paper all convert--

And had we power, miraculous, to change,

To _pens_, the _trees_,

To _ink_, the _seas_--

These would not all suffice to paint, in part,

The rich perfections of thy mind and heart--

Thy _graces_--thy _desert_!
