<l>Before the starry threshold of Joves Court</l>
<l>My mansion is, where those immortal shapes</l>
<l>Of bright aëreal Spirits live insphear'd</l>
<l>In Regions milde of calm and serene Ayr,</l>
<l n="5">Above the smoak and stirr of this dim spot,</l>
<l>Which men call Earth, and with low-thoughted care</l>
<l>Confin'd, and pester'd in this pin-fold here,</l>
<l>Strive to keep up a frail, and Feaverish being</l>
<l>Unmindfull of the crown that Vertue gives</l>
<l n="10">After this mortal change, to her true Servants</l>
<l>Amongst the enthron'd gods on Sainted seats.</l>
<l>Yet som there be that by due steps aspire</l>
<l>To lay their just hands on that Golden Key</l>
<l>That ope's the Palace of Eternity:</l>
<l n="15">To such my errand is, and but for such,</l>
<l>I would not soil these pure Ambrosial weeds,</l>
<l>With the rank vapours of this Sin-worn mould.</l>
