LIX: To the Graces

The FUMIGATION from STORAX. HEAR me, illustrious Graces, mighty nam'd, From Jove descended and Eunomia fam'd; Thalia, and Aglaia fair and bright, And blest Euphrosyne whom joys delight: Mothers of mirth, all lovely to the view, 5 Pleasure abundant pure belongs to you: Various, forever flourishing and fair, Desir'd by mortals, much invok'd in pray'r: Circling, dark-ey'd, delightful to mankind, Come, and your mystics bless with bounteous mind.
