R 186 TICKELL. When sufFering saints aloft in beams shall glow. And prosperous traitors gnash their teeth below. Such boding thoughts did guilty conscience dart, A pledge of hell to dying Cromwell's heart: Then this pale Image seem'd to' invade his room. Gazed him to stone, and warn'd him to the tomb ; While thunders roll and nimble lightnings play, And the storm wings his spotted soul away. A blast more bounteous ne'er did Heaven com- mand To scatter blessings o'er the British land : Notthatmo...re kind which dash'd the pride of Spain, And whirl'd her crush'd Armada round the main ; Not those more kind which guide our floating towers, Waft gums and gold, and made far India ours ; That only kinder which to Britain's shore Did mitres, crowns, and Stuart's race restore, Renew'd the church, reversed the kingdom's doom. And brought with Charles an Anna yet to come. O Clarke ! to whom a Stuart trusts her reign O'er Albion's fleets, and delegates the main. Dear as the faith thy loyal heart hath sworn Transmit this piece to ages yet unborn : This sight shall damp the raging ruffian's breast, The poison spill, and half-drawn sword arrest; To soft compassion stubborn traitors bend.
