THE

LIFE

OF

SIR WALTER RALEGH, KNT.

By ARTHUR CAYLEY, JUN. Esq.

But who can speak

The num'rous worthies of the maiden reign?

In RALEGH mark their ev'ry glory mix'd;

RALEGH! the scourge of Spain! whose breast with all
The sage, the patriot, and the hero, burn'd:

Nor sunk his vigour when a coward reign
The warrior fetter'd, and at last resign'd,
To glut the vengeance of a vanquish'd foe.
Then, active still and unrestrain❜d, his mind
Explor'd the vast extent of ages past,
And with his prison-hours enrich'd the world;
Yet found no times in all the long research,
So glorious or so base as those he prov'd,
In which he conquered, and in which he bled.
