TRUE FREEDOM.
WHO then is free ? the Wisc alone,
Who only bows to Reason’s throne;
Whom neither want, nor death, nor chains,
Nor subtle perfecu tor’s pains,
Nor honors, wealth, nor lust can move
From virtue and his contry*s love.
Self-guarded like a globe of fteety
External insults can he feel ?
Or ere present oue weaker part
To Fortune's moil insidious dart.
