English text
Awake, awake, ye dead, the trumpet calls,
Awake, awake, to sleep no more;
Hark! from aloft the frozen region falls,
With noise so loud it deafs the ocean's roar;
Alarm'd, amaz'd the clatt'ring orbs come down.
The virtuous soul alone appears,
Unmov'd, while earth's foundations shake,
Ascends, and mocks the universal wreck.
