Pale genius strives in vain to check a sigh
And points in silence to his laurell'd bust:
While all the tuneful nine sit by.
No does Britannia generous maid. Forget
What loth is unassuming worth is due;
But marks with sympathy and deep regret,
The cheerless scene which opens to her view,
Observes with plaintive eye where he is laid
And drops a tear of pity to his shade.
