To His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales.
AN ODE.
By Mr. Thomson.
While secret-leaguing nations frown around,
Ready to pour the long-expected storm;
While she, who wont the restless Gaul to bound,
Britannia, drooping, grows an empty form;
While on our vitals, selfish parties, prey,
And deep corruption eats our soul away.
. . . [1 verse]
But more enchanting than the muse's song,
. . . [5 lines, 2 more verses]
