There is a majesty in kingly hearts

Which changing time nor fickle fate can quell:

He stood—reveal'd from his own lips, "The King

Of fallen Naples." At those stirring words

A hundred swords unsheath'd; for on his head

A princely price was set, and flight he scorn'd;

For grasp'd his hand the well-accustom'd blade;

And vainly fought—


His hour is come! behold the dauntless man
