Thomas Campbell. 86 BATTLE SONG DAY, like our souls, is fiercely dark ; What then ? 'Tis day ! We sleep no more ; the cock crows — hark ! To arms ! away ! They come ! they come ! the knell is rung Of us or them ; Wide'no'er their march the pomp is flung Of gold and gem. What collar'd hound of lawless sway, To famine dear — What pension'd slave of Attila, Leads in the rear ? In vain your ]iomp, ye evil powers, Lisults the land ; Wrongs, vengeance, and the cause are ours, And God's right hand ! M...admen ! they trample into snakes The wormy clod ! Like fire, beneath their feet awakes The sword of God ! Behind, before, above, below. They rouse the brave ; Where'er they go, they make a foe. Or find a grave. Ebenezer Elliott. 87 THE NIGHT BEFORE THE BATTLE OF / WATERLOO '"THliRE was a sound of revelry by night, ^ And Belgium's capital had gathered then Her Beauty and her Chivalry, and bright The lamps shone o'er fair women and brave men ; A thousand hearts beat happily ; and when Music arose with its voluptuous swell.
