Ambition draws the murd'ripg sword
To give the conquer'd world lord.
Whence are those numerous hordes
whose noise - ~,
Tumultuous fends the vaui,cd skies;
Whose aspects rude and dire declare
That rape and murder harhor there!
These are the Russian barb'rous bands
The terror of IT,. adjacent lands.
IT'S Alexander leads them forth,
From dreary regions of the north
Fins, Cossacs, SlayoRs, own his sway;
Monguls, and Mandshurs, hiE, obey.
He contemplatss the Sophi's throne,
And Sultan's seep,re as his own.
He comes, intent on deeds of death
And claims the hero's laurel wreath,
But who are these whose strict array,
And arms bright glittering TO the day,
Appear as il Minerals care
Had taught them all the ar, Of war;
Whose aspects speak Inc heroes brave
To combat, and humane 10 save!
These gallant warlke bands, from France
To deeds of desthiess fame, advance.
No dangers OF the war they dread,
BY great Napoleon's genius led.
His conq'ring sword tie chief docs WELD,

From Erilish tyranny, tie sea.
Two hundred cannon. tear the air.

Earth trembling shakes beneath their feet.
Sulphureous clouds rise on the wind;

The Russian guards engage in Eght,

A chosen band, the ptide of Frspcs,

Each war.ioy's breast with ardor bu-ns,
Soon waveriug viSfory returns.
Each Russian kicks the saGgtiine plain
tOr else receives the vietor's chain
Prince Constantine flies Ike the wind:
His friends and fame Ct far behind.
While Alexander views the sight,
And, ihro' the morsaestakes his flight.

He thinks of Victories no more.
