England! The Time Is Come When Thou Should'St Wean Thy Heart From Its Emasculating Food; The Truth Should Now Be Better Understood; Old Things Have Been Unsettled; We Have Seen Fair Seed-Time, Better Harvest Might Have Been But For Thy Trespasses; And, At This Day, If For Greece, Egypt, India, Africa, Aught Good Were Destined, Thou Would'St Step Between. England! All Nations In This Charge Agree: But Worse, More Ignorant In Love And Hate, Far, Far More Abject, Is Thine Enemy: Therefore The Wise Pray For Thee, Though The Freight Of Thy Offenses Be A Heavy Weight: Oh Grief That Earth'S Best Hopes Rest All With Thee!
