From Egypt thou hast brought it heretofore:
From thence I pray deliver it once more,
Let thine hand plant it, give it steadfast root,
That all the Land may Feast upon its Fruit;
O let its Cordial Juice the Nation fill,
And let its boughs o'ershadow every Hill;
And let its boughs o'reshadow ev'ry Hill;
