On the Descent of the Germans from the Alps to Verona, and their Ascent from the Aqueduct into Cremona.
From parting Clouds, the German Eagle bringsVindictive Thunder on Imperial VVings.
The Gallick VVarrior from beneath descries
VVith wonder, while o'er Alps and Rocks he flies,
And levels at him from the neighb'ring Skies.
But see arm'd Numbers, rising from below!
Cremona trembles while the Germans flow,
From opening Cavern on th'astonish'd Foe.
Believe me, France, your Lilly faintly grows;
Nature ne'er fram'd it for th'Italian Snows;
'Twill never thrive, since Heaven and Earth oppose.
