The Cotters Saturday Nigh (第5/5页)
cottage far apart, may hear, well-pleas'd, the language of the soul; and in his book of life the inmates poor enroll. then homeward all take off their sev'ral way; the youngling cottagers retire to rest: the parent-pair their secret homage pay, and proffer up to heaven the warm request, that he who stills the raven's clam'rous , and decks the lily fair in flow'ry pride, would, in the way his wisdom sees the best, for them and for their little ones provide; but chiefly, in their hearts with grace divine preside. from ses like these, old scotia's grandeur springs, that makes her lov'd at home, rever'd abroad: princes and lords are but the breath of kings, “an ho man's the work of god;” aes, in fair virtue's heavenly road, the cottage leaves the palace far behind; what is a lordling's pomp? a cumbrous load, disguising oft the wretch of human kind, studied in arts of hell, in wiess refin'd! o scotia! my dear, my native soil! for whom my warmest wish to heaven is sent, long may thy hardy sons of rustic toil be blest with health, and peace, and sweet tent! and o! may heaven their simple lives prevent from luxury's tagion, weak and vile! then howe'er s and ets be rent, a virtuous populace may rise the while, and stand a wall of fire around their much-lov'd isle. o thou! who pour'd the patriotic tide, that stream'd thro' wallace's undaunted heart, who dar'd to nobly stem tyrannic pride, or nobly die, the sed glorious part: (the patriot's god peculiarly thou art, his friend, inspirer, guardian, and reward!) o never, never scotia's realm desert; but still the patriot, and the patriot-bard in bright succession raise, her or and guard!
