The Emmet & the beetle hark they laugh & mock at Los
Secure now from the smitings of thy Power Demon of Fury {The beginning of this inserted line is set well in from the heads of the accompanying lines, but there seems no reason not to bring it into line with them EJC}

In clouds of sweet obscurity my

Howl thou over the body of death tis thine But if among the virgins {The inserted material is clearly written over erased material EJC}

A tutor, the licentiate Pedrillo,

And rocking in his hammock, long'd for land,

In some calm ev'ning of

With music give a farewell to the day,

Greet Night's ascension to her ebon throne,
Rapt with their melody a thousand more

In the fierce luxury he hath made of woman.
