The sons of Danube shall not scornThe Julian edicts; no, nor theyBy Tanais' distant river horn,Nor Persia, Scythia, or Cathay.And we on feast and working-tide,While Bacchus' bounties freely flow,Our wives and children at our side,First paying Heaven the prayers we owe,Shall sing of chiefs whose deeds are done,As wont our sires, to flute or shell,And Troy, Anchises, and the sonOf Venus on our tongues shall dwell.
