Then with a bright benignant smile, Imploring blessings on our Isle, Bade Collingwood adieu; Oh, gracious G.o.d! my soul receive, From troubles England quick relieve, And peace again renew.

Oh death! thy keen unwelcome blow, Laid England's darling bleeding low, The hour he gain'd the day; Soon as thy hand had clos'd his eyes, A beauteous angel from the skies; Flew with his soul away.
