Listen in the reader

“Thou Guard divine, who dost with Angels dwell, And of the Starry Pole hast seigniory; Thou who didst bring Thy people Israèl Through the burst waters of the blushing sea: If from more risks than what t’ Æneas fell Or Ithican Ulysses sav’edst thou me, Passing Apollo’s largely bounded path Through rage of Æolus and Tethys’ wrath.”
