TO THE YOUNG CHEVALIER.
Presumptuous youth! to Kingdom's quit thy claim;
Charles, Francis, James or John, whate'er thy name;
Fly, and thy flag no longer dare display,
In fancy'd triumph* o'er the watry war:
Tell faithless France, and unrelenting Spain,
Heav'n guards our isle, and all their arts are vain.
* Alluding to the motto on his standard, Tandem Triumphans.
