Shall we to whom this loftier lot is giv'n,
With elevated eye to look on heav'n,
Not look contemptuous down on meaner things,
The pomp of conquest and the pride of kings!
Nor stung by mad ambition, count the cost
Of solid good in empty titles lost!
With elevated eye to look on heav'n,
Not look contemptuous down on meaner things,
The pomp of conquest and the pride of kings!
Nor stung by mad ambition, count the cost
Of solid good in empty titles lost!
