Yet we condemn not him who bravely stood, 310 To seal his country's freedom with his blood; And if, in after-times, a ruthless band Of fell invaders sweep my native land, May she, by Chili's stern example led, Hurl back his thunder on the a.s.sailant's head; Sustained by Freedom, strike the avenging blow, And learn one virtue from her ancient foe!
