'Mong nations the firft, as in Freedom in worth,
May Caledon (till be proclaim'd :
Her daughters as bright as the morn of the North,
And her fons as their forefathers fam'd :
Let the tools of a faction, the minions of pow'r,
Court the fmiles of Ambition and Wealth ;
Her favours on flaves partial Fortune may Ihow'r,
Be ours Independence and Health.
Nor let the cold wifh by a Briton be breath'd,
Which from felfifh affection has birth ;
Thofe blefiings to us by our fathers bequeath'd,
May they cheer all the nations on earth 1
May Fame's loudeft trump to each region proclaim,
That the reign of the defpot fhall ceafe !
And mankind (hall welcome, with joyous acclaim,
The sera of Freedom of Peace I
FINIS.
