Page:Ode on the day of the coronation of King Edward VII.djvu/13



In high cabal have made us what we are,

Who stretch one hand to Huron's bearded pines,

And one on Kashmir's snowy shoulder lay,

And round the streaming of whose raiment shines

The iris of the Australasian spray.

For waters have connived at our designs,

And winds have plotted with us—and behold,

Kingdom in kingdom, sway in oversway,
