THE DIAMOND JUBILEE.
In its forthcoming issue, the Independ- ent,of New York, nnoder the headline will publish the following poem written for that paper by Alfred Austin, poet laureate of England :
The dew was on the summer lawn, The roses bloomed, the woods were greep, When forth there came, as fresh as dawn, A maiden with majestic mien.
They girt a crown about her brow, They placed a sceptre in her hand,
And loud rang out a nation’s vow, “God guard the lady of the land !”
And now the cuckoo calls once more, And once again June’s roses blow, And round her throne her people pour,
Recalling sixty years ago.
And all the goodly days between, Glory and sorrow, love and pain;
The wifely mother, widowed Queen, The loftiest as the longest reign.
She shared her subjects’ bane and bliss, Welcomed the wise, the base withstood, Ard taught by her clear life it is The greatest greatuess to be good.
|
Yet while |
tor she prayed, She bore the trident, wore the helm, And, mistress of the main, she made
An empire of her island realm.
peace wrought and
So gathering now, from near, from far, From rule whereon ne’er sets the day, From Southern Cross and Northern star, Her people iift their heads and pray.
Longer and longer may she reign, And through a summer night serene, Whence day doth God
never wholiv wane spare and our Empress Queen.

At the recent closing exercises of St. Joseph’s College, Memramcook, New Brunswick, the Rev. A. B. O’Neill, C. 8, C., read the following ode, which was com- posed by him for the occasion :
“What limits to the glory and happiness of our nation if the Creator should grant her a long sojourning upon earth and leave her *o reign over us until she is well strick- en in years!”"—Rey. Sidney Smith, in June, 1837.
A jubilant song for a feast unique, a chorus to girdle the sphere
With a melody blended of praise and love fer a monarch whom all revere;
From the uttermost bounds of the em- pire let our hearts and our voices con- vene,
In triumphal acclaim to blazon the fame of Brittania’s peerless Queen :
Hail to the monarch by heaven allotted Fulness of years for the longest of
reigns !
Glory to her whose escutcheon unblotted Proudly we boast as the century wanes; Up from cach heart to her,
Blessings impart to her, Breathe we our prayer for her: Long live Victoria, God save ovr Queen !
A maiden, she knelt at the altar step while the century still was young,
New sceptred Queen of an ancient realm, of races from heroes sprung;
And her soul took flight on the wings of prayer to a friend she had early known
True wisdom to learn from the King eterne at the foot ef the Great White Throne.
Twelve lustres have sped since the grac- ious morn when the crown ‘irst circled her brow,
And the maiden Queen of the bygone day is earth’s oldest of monarchs now;
For the Lord bath granted her people’a quest, and, prolonging our sovereign’s sway
He hath blessed amain her unrivalled reign with a glory shall live for aye.
Hark to the galvos, from ocean to ocean, Booming their thunderous tributes of glee; List to the joy bells in rythmical motion ‘linging their riot out, giadsome and free ! Banish our care to-day, Sorrow forswear to-day, Blithe be our accent and festive our mien ; Louder than gun or bell Sull let our chorus swell : Long live Victoria, Empresa and Queen !
Six decades enthroned, and she still reigns on; each year but disclosing new worth In the woman supreme, the widowed Queen of the mightiest race on earth;
Six decades,—how often bath history’s ecroll Victoria’s lustrous name!
Her rule spans an eracf constant growth of the race to a higher life,
Of justice and rights taking rank of might, of peace superseding strife,
Of the reign of life, of the triumph of mind and earth and air and sea,
And of progress ewift amid error’s drift towards the truth that will make us free,
Chant, then, her praises in fond jubilation,
Canada, Austral land, India, ,ail,—
Tuned to one key beats the heart of the nation,
Throbbing responsive to loyalty’s call.
Fomage unfeigned to her,
Love unrestrained to her,
Worthier ruler the world has ne’er seen;
Round the whole sphere for her
Echo our cheer for her:
Long live Victoria, God Save the Queen.
