ODE TO mr.. alderman DIV K.
By LADY.


~ Content and jocund mirth advance
On Byi,an's fmiling plans: y &
No more to hail the coming !pfing,
With carols blythe the vallie' ring,
From all her nymphs and iwains.
The graces and the loves are fed,
And fudden horror reigns inffead,
And damps the muGe's fires:
Yet itili, in plaintive notes. and few,
Accorded to a nations woe,
hear their trembling Tyres.
Opprenion lifts her iron wand,
And waves il DER an iniur'd land,
Triumphant in her might
Wake Britain, wake! at freedoms call,
Ereyet thy dropping aurels fall,
By foul couuption's blight.
In time awake O let not here
Difhonour'd freedom drop tear,
In AIbion's long lov'd cline:
Albion whom naughty Spain has fear'd,
And frances fi'ken ions reverb,
Through all the walks of time.
Why was thy fword with viet'ry crown'd
Why preis'dthy foes the blood fain'd grounds
What power thy legions blels'dl
Let Agincourt and Crefy own,
Whence role the trophies Of renown
That deck'd Britsnnia's creff.
And why, to emulate their praife,
Her glories in meridian blaze
BURT DER Germania's plain /?
Why young and brave, yet great and good,
Did Wolfe, exulting, pour his blood,
An too untimely flain.
Sweet liberty, in all her charms,
Refulgent, glittered on their arms,
And 6r'd each warriors foul:
To Gallo power untaught to bow,
She wreath'd each dying hero's brow,
That nobly fcorn'd controul.
England thy glory rofe in vain
Whence do the lavifh Gons of Spain
Smile at thy baffled right!
They faw thy linking fpirits fall;
Saw courtiers thy bold fons appall;
And triumph'd at the fight.
Yet patriot names again lhall rife,
On fame's bright columns to the Ries,
With every virtue join'd:
friendships Hyia faith, untainted truth,
And all the gen'rous warmth of youth,
To fiie the free born mind.
Each heart felt forrow to beguile,
Benevolepce, with April fmile,
Gliding woes dewy tears;
And fortitpde, with arm of feel,
To vindicate the public veal,
And chace nations fears,
Britain for thee that arm was rear'd,
Wien dauntIefs OLIVER appear'd,
With native virtue warm:
Avenge his wrongs Avenge thy ownl
That freedom, on her iea girt throne,
May brave tn impending form.
