Lo! Health appears! celestial dame! Complacent and serene, With Hebe's mantle o'er her Frame, With soul-delighting mein.

To mark the vale where London lies With misty vapours crown'd, Which cloud Aurora's thousand dyes, And veil her charms around,

Why, Phœbus, moves thy car so slow? So slow thy rising ray? Give us the famous town to view, Thou glorious king of day!

For thee, Britannia, I resign New-England's smiling fields; To view again her charms divine, What joy the prospect yields!
