Would that breast were bared before thee

Where thy head so oft hath lain,
While that placid sleep came o'er thee
Which thou ne'er can'st know again:
Would that breast by thee glanc'd over,
Every inmost thought could show!
Then, thou would'st at last discover
'Twas not well to spurn it so

ODE.

[FROM THE FRENCH.]

We do not curse thee, Waterloo !

Though Freedom's blood thy plain bedew;

There 'twas shed, but is not sunk

Rising from each gory trunk.

Like the Water-spout from ocean,
With a strong and growing motion-
It soars and mingles in the air,
With that of lost LABEDOYERE-
With that of him whose honoured grave
Contains the "bravest of the brave."
A crimson cloud it spreads and glows,
But shall return to whence it rose;
When 'tis full 'twill burst asunder-
Never yet was heard such thunder

As then shall shake the world with wonder
