Roundelay; BEING A CHOICE SELECTION OF COMIC, MARTIAL, NAVAL, LOVE, MORAL FRINTED AND SOLD BY THOMAS AND HUNSLEY, Price 2s, sewed, and 2s. 6d, bound in red. The Roundelay. Rule Britannia. WHEN Britain first, at Heaven's command, Arose from out the azure main, This was the charter, the charter of the land, The nations not so blest as thee, Must in their turns to tyrants fall, While thou shall flourish, shall flourish great and free, The dread and envy of them all. Still more majestic shalt thou rise More dreadful from each foreign stroke, As the loud blast that-loud blast that tears the skies, Serves but to root thy native oak. Rule Britannia, &c. B |
