Σελίδα 470 - You shall see him brought to bay ; " Waken, lords and ladies gay! " Louder, louder, chant the lay, Waken, lords and ladies gay ! Tell them, youth, and mirth, and glee, Run a course as well as we ; Time, stern huntsman ! who can baulk, Staunch as hound, and fleet as hawk ? Think of this, and rise with day, Gentle lords and ladies gay...

The Man of Ross divides the weekly bread : He feeds yon alms-house, neat, but void of state, Where Age and Want sit smiling at the gate ; Him portion'd maids, apprentic'd orphans blest, The young who labour, and the old who rest.
