These Eastera lands which long have known thy smile ↑
England's bold Baint Dost now unfitted deem ber
To hold thy favour as her sacred joy! That thou canst heedless be while men esteem ber.
(Unworthy men !) as but a lightsome toy! Patron of dear-loved shores, whence we have wandered Wishful to raise their greatness to the skies.--. Show us the vision we so oft' have pondered,
Shutting our ears from these discordant cries!
"Show the whole world the vision, fair and regal,
As thou didst symbolise thy Queen, of old,— Pare heart and lips, yet keen eyes as the eagle, With eagle's strength her pinions to unfold? Open the eyes that, blind to friendship's mission,
Have counted foc, the hand in friendship held, Trample the monster of misled suspicion,
Till they shall see, with as, the evil felled !”?
This should we ask Knowing the warrior saintly
Would ne'er refuse his henchmen their request; And he is no poor myth, in tale told gasintly,
