- The Famed DelourI
My inclination for mediation
Requires the aid of the muses nine
For in my travells to Mount Pernasses
I became acquainted with a prince sublime
His kind assistance without resistance
He freely promised at any hour
If I’d entreat him he’ed elevate me
To sing the praises of the fame Delour.II

Extends its course through a winding vale
Through Lacca’s arbour when nature formed
Commodious woods and aspiring dales
Cold winters breeze ne’er disolves the trees(continues on next page)- Collector
