The multitude of angels, with a shout Loud as from numbers without number, sweet As from blest voices uttering joy, Heaven rung With jubilee, and loud Hosannas filled The eternal regions: lowly reverent Towards either throne they bow, and to the ground, With solemn adoration down they cast Their crowns inwove with amarant and gold.
