ON THE BENEFIT RECEIVED BY HIS MAJESTY FROM SEA-BATHING, IN THE YEAR 1789.
O Sovereign of an isle renown'd
For undisputed sway
Wherever o'er yon gulf profound
Her navies wing their way;
For undisputed sway
Wherever o'er yon gulf profound
Her navies wing their way;
With juster claim she builds at length
Her empire on the sea,
And well may boast the waves her strength
Which strength restored to Thee.
Her empire on the sea,
And well may boast the waves her strength
Which strength restored to Thee.
