ARISE, my @3first!@1 In peerless radiance beaming, A veil of glory thou dost weave for earth: The ocean waves to welcome thee are gleaming, For thou alone to Beauty givest birth. Shine forth, my @3second!@1 Freshly now is flowing The busy stream of life, and labor too; Each heart with ardor, base or noble glowing, Till thou shalt close, arresting all they do.
