On the Return of Daniel Lambert.

Let triumphant music flow,
Bid the sounding metal blow,
Hail the ransomed hero back,
Monarch of the oval track;
Let his football lightly time
With the comets breathing chime,
" lille the loud aud doubling drum
And the trumpet bid him come,
For he stands, a steed divine,
highest of mighty line,
And his noble fathers deal,
Heroes all and heroes Bred
From the tomb of ages shed
Lustre on his princely head.
And where trotting victOrs throng,
Eagle.switt and liOn-strOng-
At the word, away they dash,
Round the perllous turn they Hash
For life, along the stretch, Tor life
They wage the hot and desperate strife,
Till, no trils wide and breasts afoan,
They speed like fiery tCmpests homel
There, first amid the throng we see,
Fresh as mountain Dreezcs tree,
His gay and gallant progeny.
Long may wonted pastures sweet
Echo to the rythmiC beat
or his dstanCe-spurn feet;
Long in native valleys green,
Where his youthful pride was seen,
MAY the coming summers rain
Lightly on his silver name,
Which VermOnts soft zephyrs stir,
Lovingly caressing her.
