To sing thy praise, would heaven my breath prolong, Infusing spirits worthy such a song. — Virgil

To sing thy praise, would heaven my breath prolong,

Infusing spirits worthy such a song.

In the original (Latin)

O mihi tum longae maneat pars ultima vitae,

Spiritus et quantum sat erit tua dicere facta.
