Then, with a milder, though congenial ray, * Like Hesper, shone the kindred soul of JAY. His hand, unshaken by an empire's weight, His eye, undazzled by the glare of state, Even in the shadow of " Power's purple robe, " 5 He gave our land the charter of the globe ; And bade our eagle, leave her native pine, To bathe in light, beneath the sultry line ; O'er ev'ry tide, with lightning's speed to sweep, Cleave ev'ry cloud that whitens o'er the deep, Tow'r o'er the heads of conquerors and kings, An...d soar to glory, on her canvass wings. - Then, where Ohio rolls her silver flood, If e'er a tomahawk was dy'd in blood ; Or if the war- whoop broke an infant's rest, Where Erie drinks the rivers of the west, Or if an arrow, from an unseen bow, Thrown by a savage, laid a white-man low ; Or if a captive heard the hideous yell, Or felt the tortures of those fiends of hell ; On his pale horse the king of terrors sped, The fires were quench'd, the howling savage bled ; 5 Akenside.
14 THE PORTRAIT.
The grisly monarch feasted on the slain, And blest the courage, and the sword of WAYNE.
