Genius of England wherefore to the earth	A
Is thy plumed helm thy peerless sceptre cast	B
Thy courts of late with minstrelsy and mirth	A
Rang jubilant and dazzling pageants past	B
Kings heroes martial triumphs nuptial rites	C
	-
Now like a cypress shiver'd by the blast	B
Or mountain cedar which the lightning smites	C
In dust and darkness sinks thy head declined	D
Thy tresses streaming wild on ocean's reckless wind	D
	-
Art thou not glorious In that night of storms	C
When He in Power's supremacy elate	E
Gaul's fierce Usurper fulminating fate	E
The Goth's barbaric tyranny restored	F
And science art and all life's fairer forms	C
Sunk to the dark dominion of the sword	F
Didst thou not champion of insulted man	G
Confront this stern Destroyer in his pride	H
Didst thou not crush him in the battle shock	I
While recent victory shouted in his van	G
And shrunk the nations shadow'd by his stride	H
Yea chain him howling to yon desert rock	I
Where thronging ghastly from uncounted graves	C
His victims murmur 'midst the groans of waves	C
And mock his soul's despair his deep blaspheming ban	G
	-
Nor erst in Liberty's avenging day	J
When launching lightnings in her wrath divine	K
She rose and gave to never dying fame	L
Platae Marathon Thermopylae	M
Did each did all sublimer laurels twine	K
Round Graecia's conquering brows than Waterloo on thine	K
	-
Then wherefore Albion terror struck subdued	N
Sitt'st thou thy state foregone thy banner furl'd	N
What dire infliction shakes that fortitude	N
Which propt the falling fortunes of the world	N
Hush hark portentous like a withering spell	M
From lips unblest strange sounds mine ear appal	M
Now the dread omens more distinctly swell	M
That thrilling shriek from Claremont's royal hall	M
The death note peal'd from yon terrific bell	M
The deepening gale with lamentation swoln	K
These Albion these too eloquently tell	M
That from her radiant sphere thy brightest star has fall'n	K
	-
And art thou gone graced vision of an hour	O
Daughter of Monarchs gem of England's crown	K
Thou loveliest lily fair imperial flower	O
In beauty's vernal bloom to dust gone down	K
Gone when dispers'd each inauspicious cloud	N
In blissful sunshine 'gan thy hopes to glow	M
From pain's fierce grasp no refuge but the shroud	N
Destin'd a Mother's pangs but not her joys to know	M
	-
Lost excellence what harp shall hymn thy worth	A
Nor wrong the theme conspicuously in thee	P
Beyond the blind pre eminence of birth	A
Shone Nature in her own regality	N
Coerced thy Spirit smiled sedate in pride	N
Fixt as the pine while circling storms contend	N
But when in Life's serener duties tried	N
How sweetly did its gentle essence blend	N
All beauteous in the wife the daughter and the	Q
friend	N
	-
Not lull'd in langours indolent and weak	R
Nor winged by pleasure fled thy early hours	C
But ceaseless vigils blanch'd thy virgin cheek	R
In silent Study's dim sequester'd bowers	C
Propitious there to thy admiring mind	N
With brow unveil'd consenting Science came	L
There Taste awoke her sympathies refined	N
There Genius kindling his etherial flame	L
Led thy young soul the Muse's heights to dare	S
And mount on Milton's wing and breathe empyreal air	S
	-
But chiefly conscious of thy promised throne	K
Intent to grace that destiny sublime	T
Thou sought'st to make the historic page thine own	K
And win the treasures of recorded time	T
The forms of polity the springs of power	O
Exploring still with inexhausted zeal	M
Still the pole star which led thy studious hour	O
Through Thought's unfolding tracts thy Country's weal	M
While Fancy radiant with unearthly charms	C
Thus breathed the whisper Wisdom sanctified	N
Eliza's Anna's glories arts or arms	C
Beneath thy sway shall blaze revivified	N
And still prolonged and still augmenting shine	K
Interminably bright in thy illustrious line	K
	-
'Tis past thy name with every charm it bore	U
Melts on our souls like music heard no more	U
The dying minstrel's last ecstatic strain	K
Which mortal hand shall never wake again	K
But if blest spirit in thy shrine of light	N
Life's visions rise to thy celestial sight	N
If that bright sphere where raptured seraphs glow	M
Permit communion with this world of woe	M
And sore if thus our fond affections deem	V
Hope mocks us not for Heaven inspires the dream	V
Benignant shade the beatific kiss	C
That seal'd thy welcome to the shores of bliss	C
No holier joy instill'd than then wilt feel	M
If thine the task thy kindred's woes to heal	M
If hovering yet with viewless ministry	P
In scenes which Memory consecrates to thee	P
Thou soothe with binding balm which grief endears	C
A Sire's a Husband's and a Mother's tears	C
	-
Till Pity's self expire a Nation's sighs	C
Spontaneous incense o'er thy tomb shall rise	C
And 'midst the dark vicissitudes that wait	N
Earth's balanced empires in the scales of Fate	N
Be thou OUR angel advocate the while	M
And gleam a guardian saint around thy native isle	M
