Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror.

This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle,
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,

Against infection and the hand of war,

This precious stone set in the silver sea,

Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,--
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.
