Loveliness Needs not the foreign aid of ornament, But is when unadorned adorned the most.

Health is the vital principle of bliss, And exercise of health.

An elegant sufficiency, content, Retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books.

Statues and pictures and verse may be grand, But they are not the Life for which they stand.

Loveliness Needs not the foreign aid of ornament, But is when unadorned adorned the most.

When Britain first, at Heaven's command, Arose from out the azure main, This was the charter of the land, And guardian angels sung this strain: "Rule, Britannia, rule the waves; Britons never will be slaves."

Delightful task! to rear the tender thought, To teach the young idea how to shoot.
