Vital, spark of heavenly flame~ Quit, oh quit this mortal fr1me:
Trembling, hoping, lingering, flying, Oh the pain, the bliss of 'lyingl Cease, fond Nature; cease thy strife,
And let me languish into life.
Harkl they whisper; Angels say, Sister Spirit, come awayQ
\~at is this abs0rbs me quite? Steals my senses, shuts my sight, Drowns my spirit, draws my breath? Tell me, my Soul, can this be Death?
The world recedes; it dlsappearsl Heaven opens on my eyes~ my ears
With sounds seraphi~ ring:
Lend, lenj you:J. wingst I mountl I ny1
