On Mr. Howard, Who Refused a Statue the Public Wished to Raise to His Honour, During His Life
WHO REFUSED A STATUE THE PUBLIC WISHED TO RAISE TO HIS HONOUR, DURING HIS LIFE .
When royal statues moulder into dust,
And broken lies the hero's trophied bust;
If yet humanity can heave a sigh,
When mis'ry lifts the pleading, tearful eye;
Howard thy name shall live in ev'ry clime,
And give defiance to the lapse of time!
When royal statues moulder into dust,
And broken lies the hero's trophied bust;
If yet humanity can heave a sigh,
When mis'ry lifts the pleading, tearful eye;
Howard thy name shall live in ev'ry clime,
And give defiance to the lapse of time!
