Lo! anointed by Heaven with vials of wrath,

Behold where he flies on his desolate path!

Now in darkness, and billows, he sweeps from my sight:

Rise! Rise! ye wild tempests, and cover his flight!

’Tis finish’d.—Their thunders are hush’d on the moors;

Culloden is lost, and my country deplores.

But where is the iron-bound prisoner! Where?

For the red eye of battle is shut in despair.

Say, mounts he the ocean-wave, banish’d, forlorn,

Like a limb from his country, cast bleeding, and torn?
