• ENGLAND.
In that name
There is a charm which runs through all her sons,
Where er they wander. In the battle's rage
For England, aye for England, is the thought
That runs from gun to gun, from rank to rank,
And warms each heart, and nerves each arm to strike
With force resistless! 'Twas her magic name
That won Trafalgar! " What will England think ?"
Has been the spirit-stirring question oft
Iq many a bloody conflict, when the scale
,Of victory hung in dread suspense; and long,
My country, may thy all unrivall'd sons,
As now, enkindle at thy honored name,
And England be the talismanic word
That shall, from age to age, its influence shed,—
The safeguard—bulwark—glory of the land !
