Excerpt from The Works of John Home, Esq., Vol. 2 of 3: Now First Collected, to Which Is Prefixed an Account of His Life and Writings by Henry Mackenzie Prologue, Spoken by Mr Garrick. When Philip s son led forth his warlike band, To die, or conquer, in a distant land; To fan the fire, a martial muse he chose; From Homer s song a new Achilles rose! When generous Athens her prime trophies won, Vanquish d Darius, and Darius son, The stage breathed war - the soldier s bosom burn d, And fiercer to the field each chief return d: Now, when the world resounds with loud alarms, When victory sits plumed on Britain s arms, Be war our theme: the hero s glorious toil, And virtue springing from the iron soil! Our scenes present a siege in story known; Where magnanimity and valour shone: If nature guides us, if the hand of truth Draws the just portrait of a Roman youth, Who, with the best and noblest passions fired, In the same moment conquer d and expired; Perhaps your hearts may own the pictured woe, And from a fonder source your sorrows flow: Whilst warm remembrance aids the poet s strain, And England weeps for English heroes slain.
