SONG.
Ye Sot of ()recce! Your Native fromei: are Blazing.

A r n--" J', a viler ai Ice. g!airc veappelle."
" Ve sons of Greece! your native homes are blazing,,
And o'er the wreck th' oppressor's banners fly !"
" 0 child of sons ! th' avenging arm is raising,
And 'neath the wreck the oppressor's corpse shall lie !
Dost hear those pray'rs from virgin lips ascending ?
They bring us hosts and lightnings from the sky :
:Jost feel those peals the plain of battles rending ?
'Tis there our foes now struggle, fall, and die !"
" ions of the Brave ! the storm now wildly flying,
May o'er your land return with deeper gloom."
'' Sons of the Song ! 'tis then but nobly dying;
Our land shall be an empire or a tomb !
And should our hands the sword in vain have wielded,
And all our blood hut swell the cunqu'ror's pride,
Worlds still shall cry, " they fell." but not they yielded,
And in their fall Europa's honour died."
" Son of the harp ! hast thowno rousing thunder
To wake those Kings that could,_ but will not, save?
Son of the free ! no sword to cleave asunder
The slave that dares forge fetters fbr the brave ?
Oh, deed of shame ! more bitter than the raging
Of thousand foes in deadly battle set ;
The Freeman now th' oppressor's war is waging,
The Christian guards the throne of Mahomet !
