ENGLAND'S DEAD.
Son of the Ocean Isle!
Where sleep your mighty dead?
Show me what high and stately pile
Is rear'd o'er Glory's bed.
Go, Stranger! track the deep,
Free, free, the white sail spread!
Wave may not foam, nor wild wind sweep,
Where rest not England's dead.
On Egypt's burning plains,
By the Pyramid o'ersway'd,
With fearful power the noon-day reigns,
And the Palm-trees yield no shade.
