Boldly by battery besiege Belgrade;

Deal devastation’s dire destructive doom;”

And shall not evening call another star
Out of the infinite regions of the night,
To mark this day in Heaven? At last, we are
A nation among nations; and the world
Shall soon behold in many a distant port
Another flag unfurled!”
