A Lilliputian Ode on Their Majesties' Accession
Smile , smile,
Blest isle!
Grief past,
At last,
Halcyon
Comes on.
New King,
Bells ring;
New Queen,
Blest scene!
Britain
Again
Revives
And thrives.
Fear flies,
Stocks rise;
Wealth flows,
Art grows.
Strange pack
Sent back;
Own folks
Crack jokes.
Those out
May pout;
Those in
Will grin.
Great, small,
Pleased all.
God send
No end
To line
Divine
Of George and Caroline!
