Epigram, on the Prince of Wales's, then Regent, appearing at the Fire in Spring-Garden, 1716
THY Guardian , blest Britannia , scorns to sleep,
When the sad Subjects of his Father weep;
Weak Princes by their Fears increase Distress;
He faces Danger, and so makes it less.
Tyrants on blazing Towns may smile with Joy,
He knows to Save , is greater than Destroy .
When the sad Subjects of his Father weep;
Weak Princes by their Fears increase Distress;
He faces Danger, and so makes it less.
Tyrants on blazing Towns may smile with Joy,
He knows to Save , is greater than Destroy .
