OF ORPHEUS,<br />

XLVII.<br />

TO BACCHUS PERICIONIUSS3.<br />

THE ,FUMIGATION FROM AROMATICS.<br />

BACCHUS Pericionius, hear my pray'r,<br />

Who mad'st the house <strong>of</strong> Cadrnus once thy care,<br />

With matchless force his pillars twining round,<br />

When burning thunders shook the solid ground,<br />

In flaming, sounding torrents borne along,<br />

Propt by thy grasp indissolubly stroilg.<br />

Come, mighty Bacchus, to these rites inclin'd,<br />

And bless thy suppliants with rejoicing mind.<br />

s3 So called from PE~L, and KLOULS, a little pillar.
