MISCELLANEOUS.

England.

This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England,
This nurse, this teeming womb of royal kings,
Fear'd by their breed, and famous by their birth,
Renowned for their deeds as far from home,
(For Christian service, and true chivalry,)
As is the sepulchre in stubborn Jewry,
Of the world's ransom, blessed Mary's son:
This land of such dear souls, this dear dear land,
Dear for her reputation through the world. 17-ii. 1.

[blocks in formation]

That island of England breeds very valiant creatures; their mastiffs are of unmatchable courage.

And the men do sympathize with the mastiffs in robustious and rough coming on, leaving their wits with their wives: and then give them great meals of beef, and iron, and steel, they will eat like wolves, and fight like devils. 20-iii. 7.

[blocks in formation]

O England!-model to thy inward greatness,
Like little body with a mighty heart,-

What might'st thou do, that honour would thee do,
Were all thy children kind and natural!

4.

20-ii. Chorus.

England, bound in with the triumphant sea,
Whose rocky shore beats back the envious siege
Of watery Neptune.
