    —Harry Essex (b. 1910)

    High on a throne of royal state, which far
    Outshone the wealth of Ormus and of Ind,

    Show’rs on her kings barbaric pearl and gold,

    Vain war with Heav’n, and by success untaught,
    His proud imaginations

    Our country is the world—our countrymen are all mankind.
