VICTORIA THE GOOD.

BY ALFRED AUSTIN.
Poet Laureate of England
The dew was on the summer lawn.
The roses boOmed. the woods were green,
When forth there came, as fresh as daWn
A maiden with ma jestic mien
They grit "A crown about her brow.
They placed a sCeptre in her hand,
And loud rang out Nations VOW
God guard the Lady OF the Land!
And now the cuckoo calls once more,
And once again June's roses blow.
And round her throne her people pour.
Recalling sixty years ago;
And all the gOody days between,
The wifely mother widowed Queen.
The loftiest the longest reign.
She shared her subjects bane and bliss,
Welcomed the wise, the base withstood,
The greatest greatness 10 be good.
Yet while for Peace she wrought and prayed
She bore the trident. wore the helm,
And. mistress Of the main. she made
An empire Of her island realm.
So gathering now. from near. from far.
From rule wherein ne'er sets the day.
From Southern Cross and Northern Star.
Her people lift their hearts. and pray:
Longer and longer may she reign,
And. through a summer night serene
Whence day doth never wholly wane
God spare and bless our Empress-Queeni
