Florence wears an added graceA
All her earlier honors crowningB
Dante's birthplace Art's fair homeC
Holds the dust of Barrett BrowningB
-
Guardian of the noble deadD
That beneath thy soil lie sleepingB
England with full heart commendsE
This new treasure to thy keepingB
-
Take her she is half thine ownF
In her verses' rich outpouringB
Breathes the warm Italian heartG
Yearning for the land's restoringB
-
From thy skies her poet heartG
Caught a fresher inspirationH
And her soul obtained new strengthI
With her bodily translationH
-
Freely take what thou hast givenH
Less her verses' rhythmic beautyJ
Than the stirring notes that calledK
Trumpet like thy sons to dutyJ
-
Rarest of exotic flowersL
In thy native chaplet twiningB
To the temple of thy greatM
Add her she is worth enshriningB
