English poetry; Patriotic poetry, English
Away with bayonet and with lance 63
A wee bird cam’ to our ha’ door 205
A wonderful joy our eyes to bless 122
Blows the wind to-day, and the sun and the rain are flying 196
Bonnie Charlie’s noo awa’ 198
Breathes there the man, with soul so dead 183
Britain fought her sons of yore 85
By crag and lonely moor she stands 254
By the Boer lines at Congella 288
By this, though deep the evening fell 183
Cam’ ye by Athol, lad wi’ the philabeg 199
Come, all ye jolly sailors bold 44
Come, cheer up, my lads, ’tis to glory we steer 35
Come, if you dare, our trumpets sound 31
Come, my hearties--work will stand 302
_Cooee!_ I send my voice 318
Cromwell, I did not think to shed a tear 17
Cromwell, our chief of men, who through a cloud 24
Daddy Neptune one day to Freedom did say 55
Dear Cymru, ’mid thy mountains soaring high 173
Dear Harp of my country! in darkness I found thee 216
Despond who will--_I_ heard a voice exclaim 51
Did they dare, did they dare to slay Owen Roe O’Neill 227
Does haughty Gaul invasion threat 181
Drake he’s in his hammock an’ a thousand mile away 149
Drake’s luck to all that sail with Drake 150
Effingham, Grenville, Raleigh, Drake 147
England, awake! awake! awake 45
England, England, England 252
England, queen of the waves, whose green inviolate girdle
enrings thee round 125
Erin, the tear and the smile in thine eyes 215
Fair stood the wind for France 5
Fareweel to Lochaber, fareweel to my Jean 177
Far up among the forest-belted mountains 285
Fierce on this bastion beats the noon-day sun 258
First pledge our Queen this solemn night 84
Forests that beard the avalanche 121
Frae the friends and land I love 202
Free as the wind that leaps from out the North 139
From domes and palaces I bent my way 272
