To the Cumaeans

Revere the race whose hospitable dome
Yields to the houseless wanderer a home.
Cuma's high towers plac'd in the plains below,
Where proud Sardene lifts her woody brow,
Sacred to Jove where Hermus' waters flow;
O bear me to those walls, secure to find
The liberal heart, join'd to the prudent mind.
