ENGLAND
The voice, of England is a trumpet tone When that inviolate mother wills it so. Nations may rise and fall, and tyrants go Upon their devious darkened paths. Alone England preserves her people and her throne, Her ancient freedom, her perpetual flow Of broad and brightening life shall never show ; This mighty nation pitiful ahd prone. It is the Saxon spirit that speaks m her ; The staunchest soul that earth has ever wrought To guide humanity m: faith and light. The shivering stars have been her worshippers, And with defiant courage ehe has taught Red Tyranny to cringe before her Right.
