, man is manly. Here you see

The warrior-carriage of the head,

And brave dilation of the frame;

And lighting all, the soul that led

In Spottsylvania's charge to victory,

Which justifies his fame.

To look upon a Chief like this,

In whom the spirit moulds the form.

With eagle mien expressive has endued

A man to kindle strains that warm.

Trace back his lineage, and his sires,

Yeoman or noble, you shall find

Enrolled with men of Agincourt,

Heroes who shared great Harry's mind.
