Страница 96 - Tis here the folly of the wise Through all his art we view, And while his tongue the charge denies, His conscience owns it true.
Страница 96 - Tis morn; but scarce yon level sun Can pierce the war-clouds, rolling dun Where furious Frank and fiery Hun Shout in their sulphurous canopy. The combat deepens. On, ye brave, Who rush to glory, or the grave! Wave, Munich! all thy banners wave, And charge with all thy chivalry!
