While our music, wild and sweet,
  Mocks thy gently falling feet,
  Child of Ocean!

ASIA
  Shall we pursue the sound? It grows more faint
  And distant.

PANTHEA
  List! the strain floats nearer now.

ECHOES
  In the world unknown
  Sleeps a voice unspoken;
  By thy step alone
  Can its rest be broken;
  Child of Ocean!

ASIA
  How the notes sink upon the ebbing wind!

ECHOES
  Oh, follow, follow!
  Through the caverns hollow,
  As the song floats thou pursue,
  By the woodland noontide dew;
  By the forests, lakes, and fountains,
  Through the many-folded mountains;
