Around, contempt, before you, waiteth woe !
And why ? your rulers, by opinion tost.
Forgot their honours, faltered, and were lost !
* And skulked behind the laws.
D7-yde)i.
3r] THE AGE OF LEAD. 23 'Tis true — your rascal cries procured the deed, That now has brought you to your greatest need ; ris true — your senseless clamours, mounting high, Drew on your head the vengeance of the sky ; 'Tis true — your murmurs, threatening all that's dread, Echoed among your rulers' brains of lead, Till the d...ull Senate madly listened long. And fancied woes, reformed to certain wrong ! But then — unlearned in each disastrous turn, That folly led to, till you'd nought to learn ; Small wonder was it that you stumbled then. Edged slyly on by false, and silly men ! Now — skilled in sorrow, perfect in disgrace. Regain once more your long abandoned place ! Rise like a lion from your lowly bed, Shake off the villain dust that fouls your head ; Move on towards glory with undaunted might ; Reform the wrong — again to certain right ; One faulty step repair, one fatal turn, And show the admiring world you've nought to learn !
