Wliy from exulting myriads burst on high That rending shout, that fearful battle-cry ? 'Tis he ! — th' Invader ! — who from Gallia leads Her warrior sons to fame and laurell'd deeds : 'Tis he ! the tyrant still unbow'd in pride, Drives his fierce lightnings o'er the nations wide.
Lo ! where on yonder hill/ in dense array. Warrior and horse urge on their awful way, Far upon serried lines of crest and mail Descend the flashes of that sunbeam pale ; ^yhile thirsty lance and reeking sabre gleam Red
... with the blood from Borodino's® stream.
See Europe, crouching to the Victor's sway, Yields her brave sons to swell the proud array ; ' 'The Hill of Salvation ; so named because from that eminence the Russian traveller obtains his first view of Moscow. ' Life of Buonaparte in Family Library.
^The French suffered severely in a battle at this river, though they finally forced their way across it.
Here the dark Austrian' smarts beneath his chain. The generous Poles" for freedom pant again : Not such the numbers of that barb'rous horde ^ Who ruthless once on fair Italia pour'd, Marr'd the green beauty of her vintage bowers, And laid in dust her trophied halls and towers.
