Genius is thine, and thou art Fancy's nurse,

Lost without thee the ennobling powers of verse;
Heroic song from thy free touch acquires
Its clearest tone, the rapture it inspires.

Place me where Winter breathes his keenest air,
And I will sing if Liberty be there;

And I will sing at Liberty's dear feet

In Afric's torrid clime or India's fiercest heat.

(e). As if an eagle flew aloft, and then

Stooped from his highest pitch to pounce a wren.
