LONDON.
BY FRANCIS BENNOCII.

If glorious deeds deserves song,
Then, London, one to thee!
Thine ancient name all tongues proclaim
The watchword of the Free:
Where'er the flag of Liberty
Is righteously unfurl'd,
There London is;—her mighty heart
Beats through the civil world.
Then ho! for London, bravo and high,
Which she shall ever be,
While Justice rules within her walls,
And Honour guides the Free.

Of conquering Peace the pioneers
Her dauntless merchants are;
Her ships are found the world around,
Her Lona 'neath every star.
Her sheltering tree of Liberty
Spreads hourly more and more;
Its roots ran under every era,
It blooms on every shore.
Unfading youth, untarnished truth,
Great London! bide with thee;
Of cities,— Queen, supreme, serene,
The leader• of the Free.

In days of dread, she boldly stood
Undaunted, though alone,
To guard with might tile people's right
Invaded by the Throne;
And yet when civil fury raged,
And Loyalty took wing,
Iler gallant bands, with bows and brands,
Defended well their King.
Then ho! for London, Might and Right,
With her, twin brothers be;
To curb with Right the despot Might,
Exalting still the Free!

The wandering King of crown bereft,
The Patriot, lone, exiled;
Alike find refuge and repose
Where Freedom ever smiled;
And evermore she spreads her store
The exile to maintain,
And what has been her pride before,
Shall be her pride again.
Then ho! for London, Ward and Guard
To all who refuge seek;
A terror to the tyrant strong,
A shelter to the weak.

And now within her Ancient Halls,
Where Freemen ever stand,
Sho welcomes men from every clime,
With open heart and hand;
She welcomes men of every creed,
The brave, the wise, the good;
And bids all nations form indeed
A noble brotherhood.
Clasped hand in hand, lot all mankind
Like loving brothers be;
From pole to pole, let every soul
United be—and free.
