The peopled mart, the verdui'd bower, Grow in the sunshine ol e felf-devoted Spartan* lead, Than crowns, more rich, than life more dear Spring dauntless on the Petjian spear, And in th' unfetict'd arms of glory bleed : And now with Roman eagles (bar.

In life's green hour, and nature's prime, Thro 1 wide Columbia's vari'd clime, I fee thy flarry banners flow ; This hand the olive-bough extends, While that her p'ny shore defends, And wards with piereingeyethe meditated blow In laurel'd majeftv serene, Puie source of ev'ry boon, in ev'ry age a Queen ! But hark ! the rending prayer of pain / What female flirieks aflault the car ! And whelm the poet's sacred ft rain, And start the agonizing teai ! Where angel beauty* prostrate lies, And godlike genius droops his head, This by the foul-iefs Traitor dies, That bv delpotic Faction bl< d ! On thee, mild Power, they madly call, And all thy great endow ments claim, Yet on thy mangled graces fall, Apostate* to thy woiOup'd name !

To the vile rabble's rage rcfign'd The lustre ot ihy poliHi'd miud ! Can Gallia's impious sons defame The viitues of ihy fainted name, And heap th' aflafliu's deeds on thee! While to the sway of crimes alone, High-seated on a recking thione, They raise the liccns'd hand, and bend th' un- Uallow'd knee. Ah ! fee the fam'd difcov'rer \ bows That head, by dcathlels myrtles crown'd. And clasps those daring hands tn vain, Which the world's circle widely bound.

By those, at whose behelfc he trae'd The hostile plain, the foodlefs wafle, While ev'ry outrag'd virtue flies, h'd in his life's rich ft ream, the gallant Sailor lies : Pierc'd by ingratitude, to eaith he bow'd, While the mad clamours of the thankless crowd ■ aim'd the fad tribute of each weeping wound Amid the horrors of that morn How was thy form degraded seen !

When the young morn with radiant eye Peeps thro' the curtain ol the sky. And o'er the chilly brrafl ot nigUt Extends her robe of lucid light, And from her ambei'd tresses throws Each pendant pearl, that decks the rose, And, with her inufic-wafting breath, Flings odouts on the vocal heath, Thou, to the whittling woodman dear, Doll all his labouring moments cheer, And flill his willing talk "prolong, And soothe him with thy patient song, Then lead him to the bower of health, And charm him with the dieam ot wealth. Thou wilt the Child of Genius raise, And feed his feeling foul with praise, And all his paflion'd mind txeite To pictur'd visions of deligh', Wilt from ihe vuhure-viccs fly, And bting mc< k Mekcy's pleading eye, Sincerity with window'd breast, And Bounty by rejlcflion blest, F rm Valour, that at virtue's call Can bid another Decius fall, And Justice, with her poizing scale, Deaf to the villain's bribeful tale. Unchanging Faith and Friendship kind, And Love's best union of the mind, With ev'ry hope, and ev'ry tie, Which elevates Humanity. To thee the timid Minflrel sings, For thee awakes the Humbling firings ; Still round her foft submitted mind, Lov'd Power, thy fond enchantments bind, While in thy finile of bounty blest, She hails thee, Sov er eign of the West.
