Then let a peal of Joy prevail
Camden! to bid Thee hail!
Thee to her sacred Fanes, and storied Halls
Hung with their own heraldic blazonry
Of Names in Arts renown'd and graceful Chivalry,
Names of her deathless Sons, Thee Granta calls!

Welcome to the arching Groves
That musing Meditation loves,
And to the Temple's holier shade
By pensile stone in woven fretwork made,
And welcome to Thy venerated Throne
Where Villiers' grace of old and Cecil's grandeur shone,
Fill it! By Patriot Right Thou hast it for thine own!
