Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAAAABCBCBCHIS lot how glorious whom the must shall name | A |
Her first high priest in this bright southern clime | A |
Aglow with light from her aspiring flame | A |
Catching the raptures of her Grecian prime | A |
Lifting these later days to heights sublime | A |
So shall he walk the glorious path of fame | A |
He boldly quarryeth from nature s frame | A |
The sculptured marble of his lofty thyme | A |
Enbreathed with beauty o er his splendid page | B |
Shall glow his country women s lustrous eyes | C |
And many a future hero s noble rage | B |
His flame shall kindle all the brave and wise | C |
Breathing his influence from age to age | B |
Shall sound his glory to his native skies | C |
