"But add the words," cried Henry, "which you made;

For Adeline is half a poetess,"

Turning round to the rest, he smiling said.

In courtesy their wish to see displayed

By one three talents, for there were no less—

The voice, the words, the harper's skill, at once,

Could hardly be united by a dunce.
