Then, strengthened by his indignation,

He uttered this denunciation:—

“Breathes there a man that England’s bred,

Who never to himself hath said,

This is a scandal to my land?

Whose wrath has not within him burned,

As home his footsteps he hath turned

From travelling on a foreign strand,

When he’s been put to ache and freeze

In such disgraceful trucks as these?
