" Through airy roads they wing their infant flight,

" From dark abodes to fair etherial light,

" The enraptured inocents has wing their way,

" To purer regions of Celestial day.

" The Angels view them with delight unknown,

" Press their soft hands & seat them on their throne,

" Thrice welcom, now the inraptured Bibes replies

" Thanks to our God who snatch' us to the skies.
