ON
THE
RIGHT
HONORABLE
GENERAL
C——Y
LOSING
HIS
ELECTION
FOR
BURY
ST.
EDMUND'S
.
An
humble
muse
presumes
thy
worth
to
boast
,
Says
D——'s
conquer'd
,
and
that
C——y
lost
;
Still
thou
dost
triumph
in
the
noblest
part
,
Still
doth
preserve
the
generous
patriot's
heart
;
Thy
principles
,
great
Chief
,
exalt
thy
fame
,
And
ever
shall
immortalize
thy
name
;
For
ever
lov'd
,
distinguish'd
must
thou
be
,
For
brightest
virtues
ever
shone
in
thee
;
Thy
noble
acts
are
well
in
Britain
known
,
And
generous
friendship
marks
thee
for
her
own
;
Then
glory
,
C——y
in
this
seeming
fall
,
Thou
risest
still
superior
over
all
:
The
day
will
dawn
when
Britain's
sons
shall
see
Their
noblest
privileges
prized
by
thee
;
Thou
like
the
sun
in
yonder
western
skies
,
Only
declin'st
,
more
gloriously
to
rise
.
