For I icorn the power of your puny hande,
Aa a tempest fcorn a cain.
How I lancuinhcd as I lay concealed frotn sight
For many a countless hour,
At the childish boast of hutna.i nrrji?,
Andtho pride cf h'iman power!
When I saw an army upon the land,
A navy upon the sea,
Crerpinc alorg a snail-like band,
Or w.itmg ll. waywtrJ bierie;
Whon t marked the peasant faintly rerl
With the toil which he daily bor.
As he feebly turned at the tardy wheel.
Or tugged at the weary oar :
When I meatired the panting course's speed.
The flight of the carrier dore,
i. .k.- bore the law a Kintr decreed.

Where now tny fiery armies ratige,
Jor wait tor winil or tide!
Hutrah! hurrah! the waters o'er ,
The mountains steep decline !
Time space have yielded to my power
The world the world is mine!
The rivers the sun hath earliest blest,
Or those where his bean, a decline;
The giant streams of the ipteenly Wsst,
Or the orient floods divine.
The ocean pales where'er I sweep,
To hear my strength rejoice ;
And the mounters of the briny deep
Cower trembling at my voice.
I carry the wealth and the lord of earth,
The thought of the god-like tnind ;
The wind lags after tny flying forth ;
The lirjritenin;; is left bt hind !
