And hark the Trumpet's mournful breath | B |
Low murmurs round it a Note of Death | B |
The Mighty are no more | C |
- | |
How solemn slow that distant Groan | D |
O could AMBITION wild with fear | E |
The deep prophetic Warning hear | F |
And looking listning vain around | G |
For one soul soothing softer sound | G |
While near unseen the Fiends of Hell | H |
Toll round the wretch his fancied Knell | H |
Rave all alone | D |

But hark soft Plaints arise | I |
Friendship adieu farewel soft Love | J |
I go to smiling Peace above | J |
The Friend the Lover dies | I |

Yet happy Soul to Freedom giv'n | D |
Go where no proud tyrannic Lord | K |
Drives Man upon his Brother's sword | K |
Where Angels from thine arms shall tear | L |
The Chains AMBITION bade thee wear | L |
Where on the once pale Cheek of Woe | M |
In Smiles immortal Roses blow | M |
The Bloom of Heav'n | D |
