He wrote the " Parisienne," which was to the Revolution of July what the ** Marseillaise " had been to the old Revolution.
BATTLE OF WATERLOO.
Thbt breathe no longer : let their ashes rest !
Clamor unjust and calumny They stooped not to confute; bat flung their breast Against the legions of your enemy, And thus avenged themselves : for you they die.
Woe to yon, woe ! if those inhuman eyes Can spare no drops to mourn your country's weal; Shrinking before your selfish miseries ; Against the commo...n sorrow hard as steel : Tremble '. the hand of death upon you lies : Toa may be forced yourselves to feel.
But no, — what son of France has spared his tears For her defenders, dying in their fame ?
Though kings return, desired through lengthen- ing years.
What old man's cheek is tinged not with her shame ?
What veteran, who their fortune's treason hears, Feels not the quickening spark of his old youthful flame.' Great Heaven! what lessons mark that one day's page !
What ghastly figures that might crowd an age !
