Lkt idlers despair ! there is hope fur the wise , Who rely on their own hearts and hands ; And we read in their souls , by the flash of their eyes , That our land is the noblest of lands . Let knaves fear for England , whose thoughts wear a mask , While a war on our trenchers they wage : Free Trade , and no favour ! is all that we ask ; Fair play , and the world for a stage ! Secure in their baseness , the lofty and bold Look down on their victims beneath ; Like snow on a skylight , exalted and cold , They shine o ' er the shadow of death ; In the warm sun of knowledge , tluit kindles our blood , And fills our cheer'd spirit 3 with day , Their splendour , contemu'd by the brave and the good , Like a palace of ice , melts away . Our compass , which married the east and the west — Our press , which makes many minds one—Our steam-sinew'd giant , that toils without rest— - Proclaim that our perils are gone .
