Verses

Verse 1

O Nurs'd with Dionysius [Dionysos], doom'd to keep thy dwelling in the widely-spreading deep: With joyful aspect to my pray'r incline, propitious come, and bless the rites divine:

Verse 2

Thro' earth and sea thy ministers attend, and from old Ocean's stormy waves defend: For ships their safety ever owe to thee, who wand'rest with them thro' the raging sea.

Verse 3

Come, guardian pow'r, whom mortal tribes desire, and far avert the deep's destructive ire.
