In God's eternal plan. No real good from moral ill you scan. Conduct the axis, that our fate controls, Directs our destiny between the poles, As up we to the prosp'rous zenith go. Or to the adverse nadir sink below. The real gravitations right and wrong. Which to the corresponding poles belong ; For though our prospects, wavering, may move. They, like the needle, will but little rove : And, like that needle, to the magnet true. In happiness our virtue e'er pursue. Nor will the steady rule rever...se it's laws. More in a public than a private cause. The nation's greatness then, you prize so high. Will prove it's own most mortal enemy ; And in the vengeance, that it's wrongs entail, Will make dire ruin o'er it's lot prevail. Besides that conquest drains a nation's strength. And starves it's thickness to maintain it's length THE CONaUEROR. 87 Just as in crowded woods the sapling 's found. With sad prosperity, to seek the ground. Pythias. But granting still, Octavius, the rule Of all our actions from the moral school ; And granting, too, a nation may be strain'd With the same efforts that have vict'ry gain'd Yet still the conqu'ror, useful in liis way.
