Opis: England, a Nation - Club Patriots'

Excerpt from England, a Nation: Being the Papers of the Patriots Club

Old England, gracious wielder of the spell
Of pastoral beauty, janitress benign
Of green Arcadian temples, matron-belle
Robed rich of rustic glory, it is well,
Yea, all boasting, to be son of thine.

Foul fall such ingrates as the spell proclaim
A charm outworn, and in their lust of gold
Deem thy swift conquests of sublimer fame
Than this that shaped them - English such in name,
Yet aliens utter both in heart and mould.

Stay thou green England, fill thy loins with store
Of peasant manhood, sow thou plenteous seed
Of such grim valour as was thine of yore,
Be thy strong philtres aye and evermore
The broad green woodland and the wind-swept mead!

George Bartram.
