Embossed on grandeur’s giant walls?

Or hear his moral thunders speak

Where senates light their airy halls,

Where man his brother man enthralls;

Or sends his whirlwind warrants forth

To rouse the slumbering fiends of war,

To dye the blood-warm waves afar,

And desolate the earth?

From clime to clime pursue the scene,

And mark in all thy spacious way,
