ODE FOR HIS MAJESTY'S BIRTH-DAY.
June 4, 1783.
At length the troubled waters rest,
And shadowing ocean's calmer breast,
Exulting commerce spreads her woven wings:
Free as the winds that waft them o'er,
Her issuing vessels glide from shore to shore.
And in the bending shrouds the careless, sea-boy sings.
