 And nd mllder moons emparadise the night; l A land ot beauty, virtue, valor, truth, lime tutored age, and love-exalted youth, Inc wandering mariner whose eye explores

 The wealthiest isles, the most enchanting shores, Views not realm so bountitu and fair, Nor breathes the spirit of purer air In every cline the magnet of his sOul IOuch'd by remembrance, trembes to that pole. For Tn this land of heaven s peculiar grace, The heritage of natures noblest race,

 There is spot of earth supremely blest, A drearer, sweeter spot than all the rest,

 Where man, creations tyrant, cast aside

 His His sword and sceptre, pagcantry and pride, While, in his softened looks, benignly blend The sire, the son, the husband father, friend. Here woman reigns; the mother, daughter wife, Strews with fresh flowers the narrow way of life, In the clear heaven of her delightful eye,

 An ange[guard of loves and graces lie;

 Around her knees domestic duties meet,

 And hre;slde pleasures gambol at her feet. Where shall that land, that spot of earth be found? Art thou man "a patriot, look around Oh /! thou shalt hnd howe'er thy footsteps roam, That land, THY COUNTRY, and that spot thy HOME.
