Where, void of friends, of pleasure, food or rest, Tormenting slavery preys upon our breast; From yon thick squadron, whence we hope to hear The voice of freedom charm the captive s ear, Sounds the sad tale, DECATUR S name deplore, For that young hopeful hero breathes no more ! He left, to free us from barbarian chains, Columbia s blooming groves and peaceful plains; Forever sacred be those arms he wore, The cause that mov d him, and the barque that bore, Twas heav ns own cause twas freedom s i...njur d name, The love of country, and the voice of fame Call d forth his active martial skill to go Scour the wide deep and scourge the tyrant foe ; Dauntless he fights, where dying groans resound, And thund ring carnage roars tremendous round Till heav n beheld him with propitious eyes, And snatch d his kindred spirit to the skies. When from the Turks his mangled form they bore With glory cover d, bath d in streaming gore, Bewailing friends his ghastly wounds survey d, Which bid defiance to all human aid, When life stood trembling, ling ring in its flight, And heav n s blest visions dawn d upon his sight; The radiant shades of heroes hov ring round, Midst harps of angels, with reviving sound, Sooth d the last pangs of his undaunted breast, 394 HORRORS OF SLAVERY 149 And wing d him, convoy d, to eternal rest.
