76 THE ODES OF HORACE [Book III 'T is sweet for native land to die, 'T is noble : Death takes them that fly : For coward- back it has no ruth, Nor spares the flight of dastard youth. To Virtue shame is all unknown ; She shines with honours of her own ; Nor, as the public smile or frown. Takes office up, or lays it down. By paths unknown she cleaves the sky, And lifts the souls too great to die ; She spurns, on pinions upward bound. The vulgar crowd, the spongy ground. And trusty silence earns i...ts mite. One, Ceres, blabs thy sacred rite : No common roof for him with me, No common bark to tempt the sea! Neglected, Jove oft smites good men Mixed with the guilty herd : but when Did Doom, though lame, not bide its time To clutch the nape of sculking crime? Ode III] THE ODES OF HORACE ']'] ODE III ON JUSTICE THE just man, in his purpose strong, No madding crowd can bend to wrong. The forceful tyrant's brow and word, Rude Auster, fickle Adria's lord. His firm-set spirit cannot move, Nor the great hand of thundering Jove.
