WISE is the Millionaire, who, while Accounts her wealth a burthen, Than if his ware were earthen. Still wiser he, who, losing all, And resolutely nerve his As from his silver service. The storm-toss'd mariner, who Alings To port his lighten'd vessel, With winds and waves to wrestle. Thus may the ruined Merchant, moored And desperate exertion To shuddering submersion. Our fears of ill by far exceed On miseries ideal, Will boldly face the real. B The merchant who succumbs to fate, In this o'erwhelming crisis, Which, as it falls, still rises. Who, taught that Fortune's chalice That laugh at all her malice. From thine own mind thou reapest, Are evermore the cheapest. Thy course thou wouldst renew in, And lure thee to fresh ruin. May win their former stations, On solid, sure foundations. And England's self, in trial's hour, Rousing her undiminish'd power, Her giant limbs still plastic, Shall from the passing pressure rise, With fresh develop'd energies, And higher bound elastic. Yes—spite of all external foes, Despite the many inward throes That fiercely have o'erswept her, All-conquering England, as of old, With unenfeebled grasp shall hold Her world-compelling sceptre. |
