— Or let me name thee more complete- Thou screen for evVy act that's base ! Thou hiding-place for all deceit ! - A snowy lambskin thou dost wear, And "glory to the Lord's'' thy cry; But ah ! thy deeds from year to year, Are of the deepest ebon dye. 54 When freedom is to feel a shock, Thy oily tongue invokes the Lord To be all-mindful of his flock — To blunt the spear, and break the sword. And when suspicions all are hush'd, Like tigers lurking for their prey, Thy legions come, the free are crus...hd, ,Man groans beneath tyrannic sway. How oft has thou been known to come With fire and faggot o'er the land, Compelling Reason to sit dumb, And giving Priests supreme command. And when the game of war is play'd, And Reason tries the sport to mar, Thy voice proclaims the brutal tradt, " A just and necessary war. " Whoever may the contest win, ; Is all the same to thee and thine, Thou'lt prove the victor free of sin, And that he reigns by right divine. Whatever miseries are felt, No matter how they spring, or where.
