VISION OF THE HEROES OF POLAND
57
Kosciusko tranquilly
And Poniatowski lowly lie,
And Sobieski seeks his rest
In the earth's untroubled breast.

Freedom's Goddess, mid the blaze
Of the bright sun's flashing rays
Stands, and o'er her vibrating
The white eagle waves his wing.

Gazing on the azure sky
The nations shout in ecstacy,—
While weep with joy the Polish band
In their own free fatherland.
