To Cuma

Lend hospitable rites and house-respect,

You that the virgin with the fair eyes deckt

Make fautress of your stately-seated town,

At foot of Sardes, with the high-hair’d crown,

Inhabiting rich Cuma; where ye taste

Of Hermus’ heavenly fluent, all embrac’d

By curl’d-head whirl pits; and whose waters move

From the divine seed of immortal Jove.
