MARCH. ANODE.

Ike Jafon, arm'd in coat of mail,
Who nobly won the golden fleece,
Thro' heavy storms of wind and hail,
March on a Ram triumphant rides,
A warlike month! averfe to peace:→→→
No longer now the foldier bides
In huts hybernal-o'er the plain,
Embattled fee the dread campaign!

Or on the flood, if war prefide,
See Britain's bicady pennant Яy!
Her's is the ocean, free, as wide,

Where-e'er the fons of commerce fail,
Where-e'er her canvas pinions ply,
Her floating citadeis prevail
O'er all the force of Gaul and Spain,
Whose fleets no more ufurp the main.
