FOR THE SUN.

Mu. EDIT 0 R—llaving observed in your Paper of last week
part of an Oui: in HORACE applied to certain circumstances
of the present times, I do not understand why the Writer
omitted the other part, which, by a translation I have found
among my papers, seems worthy of like notice.
The Boy that's train'd by military art,
Who sleeps and bivouacks in the open air,
In ev'ry peril takes an active part,
And well the straits of Poverty can bear.
Him shall the matron from the hostile tow'r,
Him shall the blooming maid with dread espy,
Rushing to battle.with a lion's pow'r,
And silent heave a deep foreboding sigh,
Lest her betroth'd, of royal lineage sprung,
Ambitious of renown, should rashly dare,
Yet inexpert in arms, in courage strong,
So rough a champion to unequal war.
Death for our Country is a noble end,
Death close pursues too the deserter's track ;
Compassion ne'er can make the tyrant bend,
Nor spare the suppliant knee or cowards' back.
Virtue fears not repulse ; like Diamond shines,
Heeds not the poplar cry of wou'd-be Kings;
Which ever way their wayward will inclines,
She spurns the ground alike and spreads her wings,
Looking contempt below, with conscious pride,
Soaring majestic to the azure sky,
She tries a way, to rebel folk denied,
For those to pass who are too good to die.
To thee, too, silence, a reward is due,
Thee, faithful silence ! for I cannot bear
The wretch who pays not a regard to you,
But speaks a secret trusted to Ms ear ;
Let such with me ne'er enter in my hall,
My boat or car, or live in any shape,
Lest Guilt and Innocence together fall ;
For seldom old offenders can escape.
