`kllis PRINCE REGENT; OR UNANIMITY

WRITTEN BY MAJOR J thl‘i *.

Uniting, by an plan,
Opposing ties in one,,
Vb.! PR I NC t has reasori'd like a neon,
And ailed like a 'Sou.
To all hts filial duties true,
Though Nature guides his soul,
The Nation still he keeps in view,
And governs for, the whole.

• Her hissing crest let envy drop,
And.cAlumny retreat;
While British faith and nunhood stop-
Where sense and feeling meet.,
Let party spirit too be still,
And may the Regent prove,
He governs by the P'eople's will,
And with a Parent's love.

In common life, from Sire to Child,
Affeeliop downward flows;
But here, unalterd, undefil'd,
The current upward goes.
o where's the Fatherbut must love
A Sou whose heart's so pure;
And v'.'here's the Child that would llOt move
In duties so secure?

A House divided soon must tall,
• And Kings and Nation; too;
Then let us struggle, one and all,
And one and all be true.
For never yet was, this fair Isle
So perilously driven, -
And ►ever were ;non.: strength and guile
Exerted under Heaven.

With genius fraught that far exceeds •
What human fancy dreams,
The Lord of Fr.ince in might prcieccds,
And dates gigantic schembs.
Then let us struggle, oue and ail,
And, One anthill, be true; •
For—if dividcd—we must fall, '
As other Nations do.

Hugget was first called, who said he received the
