First line
Brady's words sum up a musical conception of the cosmos, and Purcell's music offers auricular proof: jarring chords by tremulous strings on "jarring Seeds" beg for resolution, voices agree homo-phonically on "agree" and scatter in separate lines on "scatter'd," various voice parts sing "various Parts," modulation displays harmonic proportions on "true proportion," and a lingering cadence on "one Perfect Harmony" ends with one perfect tonic chord.
