Part I. LONDON
" When Europe freed confess'd the saving pow'r Of Marlb'rough's hand, Britain, who sent him forth Chief of confed'rate hosts to fight the cause Of liberty and justice, grateful rais'd This palace, sacred to her leader's fame ; A trophy of success with spoils adorn'd Of conquer'd towns, and glorying in the name Of that auspicious field where Churchill's sword Vanquish'd the might of Gallia, and chastis'd Rebel Bavar. Majestick in its strength Stands the proud dome, and speaks its great design."
Lyttelton.
