The Poetical Works of the Late Thomas Warton | ||
I.
Recitat./Accomp.Where shall the Muse, that on the sacred shell,
Of men in arts and arms renown'd,
The solemn strain delights to swell;
Oh! where shall Clio choose a race,
Whom Fame with every laurel, every grace,
Like those of Albion's envied isle, has crown'd?
Chorus.
Daughter and mistress of the sea,
All-honoured Albion hail!
Where'er thy Commerce spreads the swelling sail,
79
So brave, so learned, and so free;
All-honour'd Albion hail!
