When Genius sighs its paAing breath
In the last awful hour ofd li,r
Snehsirains are heard arOund/tiitai4
As if to hail the mighty dead !
And ilia there not he sung on earth,
The requiem of departed Worth ? •
Shall meinory fail to shed the tear,
For hint who Once was held:so dear ?
Or shall his ashes unwept lie !
Shall SULFUDAN unhonour'd
Harp of the Green Isle ! thee I call,
Thine be the task to mourn his fall—
To weep his fate be thine alone,
Erin, be was all thine own

And is he then for ever gone ?
How oft is traced that tbollght of glpom—
'Recorder of the fatal tomb!
Clos'd are thoie eyes in everlasting night,
Which once in brightest splendour beinn'tl,
Mote is that voice, which like the torrent's might,

Oh ! fur that soul-inspirioji hour,
When India's groans aron's Ii each, power..
And bade hint fearless gaze on Freeautu's Sun !
Nation's welfare on hitt, hung,
A Nation's wrongs sate on his tongue,
Invincible he rusted along!
Pale Tyranny, astonished, beard the while,
And Slavery's self assuued a woe-worn smile :

Strike louder still the Warbling lyre,
Breath forth a strain of holy tire—
For, oh ! how sinks the in4nareh nit hiS throne,
Mow falls the victor in-the criutkuti fight,
'Neath hint who dauntless stands alone,

Yet why attune the lyre to joy? •
Why aught but sounds ,of woe employ?

A thousand eyes on him reposed—

And casts around his languid eyes—
