The man of firm and noble soul | B |
No factious clamours can control | B |
No threat'ning tyrant's darkling brow | C |
Can swerve him from his just intent | D |
Gales the warring waves which plough | C |
By Auster on the billows spent | D |
To curb the Adriatic main | E |
Would awe his fix'd determined mind in vain | E |
Ay and the red right arm of Jove | C |
Hurtling his lightnings from above | C |
With all his terrors there unfurl'd | F |
He would unmoved unawed behold | G |
The flames of an expiring world | F |
Again in crashing chaos roll'd | G |
In vast promiscuous ruin hurl'd | F |
Might light his glorious funeral pile | H |
Still dauntless 'midst the wreck of earth he'd smile | H |
