"Go with old Thames, view Chelsea's glorious pile,
And ask the shattered hero whence his smile;
Go view the splendid domes of Greenwich, go-
And own what raptures from reflection flow.
Hail! noblest structures imag'd in the wave,
A nation's grateful tribute to the brave:
Fail! blest retreats from war and shipwreck hail!
That oft arrest the wandering stranger's sail;
Long have ye heard the narratives of age,
The battles' havoc and the tempests' rage:
Long have ye known reflection's genial ray
Gild the calm close of valour's various day."
