DON JUAN. | 67 CLXXXI. De Berenger, to Freedom sacred name ! Upon thy brows a double crown is placed ; Laurels and Roses, entertwined, proclaim Your nation’s glory and your Lisette’s taste. Oh! thou in many ways hast courted fame— Love, Wine, and Liberty thy verses graced : At once Anacreon and Tyrtoeus,* thou May’st wear that two-fold chaplet on thy brow. CLX XXII. Indignant at the fate of Waterloo, Glowing with anger, hast thou poured thy spite Upon the Bourbon—for his planet grew In the ascendant, when that murky night Concealed the sun e’en from the eagle’s view, And veiled that star—once so supremely bright :— France all her old enthusiasm renews In the outpourings of thy lyric muse. +, * The Muse of the inimitable Thomas Moore (one of the greatest poets of modern times,) has rendered the songs of Anacreon familier to all who can read the English language. Tyrtoeus wrote elegies, which ought rather to be denominated martial songs, and which were so popular that they were sung in the Spartan camps two ~ hundred years after the time of the poet, no more appropriate war-hymns having suc- ceeded them.
