Wise nature mocks the wrangling herd; For unreclaimed, and untransferred, Her powers and rights remain. 19 While law the royal agent moves, The instrument thy choice approves, We bow through him to you. But change, or cease the inspiring choice, The sovereign sinks a private voice, Alike in one, or few! 20 Shall then the wretch, whose dastard heart Shrinks at a tyrant's nobler part, And only dares betray; With reptile wiles, alas! prevail, Where force, and rage, and priestcraft fail, To pilfer ...power away? 21 Oh! shall the bought, and buying tribe, The slaves who take, and deal the bribe, A people's claims enjoy! So Indian murderers hope to gain The powers and virtues of the slain, Of wretches they destroy. 22 'Avert it, Heaven! you love the brave, You hate the treacherous, willing slave, The self-devoted head; Nor shall an hireling's voice convey That sacred prize to lawless sway, For which a nation bled. ' 23 Vain prayer, the coward's weak resource! Directing reason, active force, Propitious Heaven bestows.
