PARODY ON HoHENLINDEN.
In rum-dsns when the sot lay low,
Relentless ragged his ravening foe,


And dark as Hades was the woe
taEd9ga Ofweepers weeping bitterly.
But rum-dens saw another sight, t
( When truth awoke from deepest night,
Commanding fires OF life TO light -


The darkness of deaths revelry.
ga BY law and mercy fast arrayed,
y Truths warrior drew his battle blade,
And swiftly every blow was laid


10 slay the deadly enemy.
Then shook the foe in terror driven,
Then rose the fallen by pledges given,
And quenched, as by the floods Of heaven,


Soon cooled The hot distllery.
And colder yet, though smouldering slow,
Shall be those fires of death and woe,
a And rarer yet shall be the flow
8e OF tears rung out in bitterness
IT'S war-but scarce truths rising sun,
r8a His conguering race begins to run,
ra When poison-venders, near undone,
Eg3s, Shout from their flaming battery.
! The conflict deepens On We brave, .3
Who, rescued from the spelling knaye,
Pluck men from infamy and The grave,
3sh, With holy inrepidity. .isa NJ 1'
Soon none shall fall where many meet;
Their home shall be their blest retreat,
Nor one green turf beneath their feet,
tasa Shall be drunkard's sepulchere.
