MARCH | B |
- | |
CLARKSON it was an obstinate hill to climb | C |
How toilsome nay how dire it was by thee | D |
Is known by none perhaps so feelingly | E |
But thou who starting in thy fervent prime | C |
Didst first lead forth that enterprise sublime | C |
Hast heard the constant Voice its charge repeat | F |
Which out of thy young heart's oracular seat | F |
First roused thee O true yoke fellow of Time | C |
Duty's intrepid liegeman see the palm | G |
Is won and by all Nations shall be worn | H |
The blood stained Writing is for ever torn | H |
And thou henceforth wilt have a good man's calm | G |
A great man's happiness thy zeal shall find | I |
Repose at length firm friend of human kind | I |
