THE

LIFE OF NELSON.

BY

ROBERT SOUTHEY, LL.D.

66 Bursting through the gloom
With radiant glory from thy trophied tomb,
The sacred splendour of thy deathless name
Shall grace and guard thy Country's martial fame.
Far-seen shall blaze the unextinguish'd ray,
A mighty beacon, lighting Glory's way;
With living lustre this proud Land adorn,

And shine, and save, through ages yet unborn."
ULM and TRAFALGAR.

NEW EDITION.

TWO VOLUMES.
