And all be mine beneath the polar sky".

The march begins in military state,

And nations on his eye suspended wait;

Stern Famine guards the solitary coast,

And Winter barricades the realm of Frost;

He comes, nor want nor cold his course delay;

Hide, blushing Glory, hide Pultowa's day:

The vanquish'd hero leaves his broken bands,

And shows his miseries in distant lands;

Condemn'd a needy supplicant to wait,
