Anonymous, Death of Nelson (1819)
“ RECITATIVE. O'er Nelson's tomb with silent grief oppressed,Britannia mourn'd her hero now at rest.But those bright laurels ne'er shall fade with years,Whose leaves are watered with a nation's tears. ”

“ Along by the way as they ramble,Let them fall by the way with my trunk.Let them al be laughing and jeering,Like men who are ail going mad,Let them drink a glass over my coffin,Crying, there lies a true-hearted lad. ”
