ADDRESS

the CONINIENIORATioN of Mr. PITT's

May 98 , Isis.
By the PITT CLUB, LoAdon.
TFritteg and recited by EDMUND L. SWIFT, E s

Years paiS away; Time speeds the unwearied wipg;
And shadows in its restless gathering
The hopes of Man, his triumphs, and his power ;
While dark oblivion veils the vanished hour.—
Where now Assyria's glory ?—Vbither gone,
Whither ?—the sky-heared pride of Babylon-?
And vainly Egypt's King have teird for fame,
Whose Psramids enshrine theme buried name; .

So weak, Mortality's.unaided hand
rod: Is water, and her nimble sand.—
She builds upon the ware ;—slie writes•in air ;
Allll Fate's dread mockery mars the record there.
The flag, that swept o'er half the antique world,
Now falls, beneath the dust of ages furl'd ;
And the high Throne, Warne: Empires heard their dciOrn--:-
Where sleep its terrors ?J—ln a dateless tomb.—

But We!--through distant centuries streara'd afar,
We trace the riling of Our England's star;
Where Valour, join'd•with Virtue, foriu'd the gem,
Cradlcd in ALPKED's early diadem.
Then, kindling in its height, ue saw it pour'd
Bound the kern lustre of that Patriot Sword,
Which scared the bigot King; and dash'd aside
Itmie's tyrant Priest, and cliecled his vaulting pride.,

Still,roward its tun meridian mounts the ray,
Aild spreads the splendours of undying day:—
From EnWARD's plume its gathering glories stream,
And mingle in our GEutioCi brighter bean:,
Oh when, aliove the sable %Varrior's crest,
That tripled trophy led the embattled West,
Moved it not then before his darkening fain:,
litaven's bright and eager herald of the storm ?
And oh !—when thellestroying Angel rose,
On the plagued vaitth to pour his phial'd woes',
Went it Hui. foith again I—and cross'd his path ?
And salute him with our England's heavier wrath

But who—serene alike in peace or war—
Who firi'd the brightness of her Island star ?
What heart of virtue, and what hand of power,
Sphered in such glory her ascendant hour ?
Whose wise the chit' med name?--oh! look we here,
And read it in his country's memoried tear:—
Iu her wide triumphs read it ! Every wave,
And every field, bring tribute to his grave;
And rescued friends; and vanquished foes, have bent
Before our I'm's eternal Monument.

For died be in the conflict—Hr., our guide,
Mid' the dark danger's of the tempest died:
While his exhausted spirit sought the sky,
In that sublime and ceaseless agony.
Where heal: now its fire? What kindred spit it
Its high mysterious workings :loth inherit? •
newts, tongues, all leap to answer :.—but this dal►
Bids England, here, a silent homage pay.
Tue roof that echoed it, the strain that peal'd
Its triumph in our last and fiercest field,
Catch but the whisper of one honour'd name—,
Undying lair of Pins undying fame.—

One note exultant more.—ln that sad time,
When Tyranny was Law, and-Freedom t sine,
Our Noble Sires withstood a seeptei'd slave,
-And warr'd at the Throne, the Throne to save.
Now England's Chiefs, as firm in England's cause,
Juin with her PatNcE to vindicate her laws :
And While from Pyre's unspotted shrine they turn,
TO wreathe new offerings round that regal urn, , •
Where long and halloCng memory shall emlear
Their Cummorres name through many a grateful year;
There, vow they to defend with duteous hand
Their Throne, their Altar, and their Native Land;
And watch, and welcome, through its upward sky,
The Star of England's prowl ASCENDANCY.
