Her mighty arm great Arthur beckons on,
Against Soult’s host to urge the fiery storm,
And thus with voice sublime she speaks in accents warm:—
XXVI.
“Oh Arthur! thou my soldier and my shield,
In whom revived to-day is e’en surpassed
Another Arthur’s fame who first revealed
The heroic glow of Chivalry, and cast
A blaze o’er England which for aye will last.
