Far from the realms of Day;
O'er Scythian Hills to the Meotian Lake
A speedy Flight we'll take:
There Somnus I'll compell
His downy bed to leave and silent Cell:
With Noise and Light I willhis Peace molest
Nor shall he sink again to pleasing Rest
'Till to my vow'd Revenge he grants Supplies
And seals with Sleep the wakeful Dragon's Eyes
