New cities will rise, and the triumphs appear
Of Riches, and Science, and Peace.
“O give me to breathe, while this scene I describe:
A Monarch in Scotland I see,
When she pours from her Highlands and Lowlands each tribe,
Who are loyal, and happy, and free. 20
“The Islands at rest in their Sovereign rejoice;
Lo, the power and the wealth they display!
And there comes from the lands and the waters a voice,
From the Shannon, the Thames, and the Tay.
