Inscription For An Altar Of Independence
Reading edition
At Kerroughtree, the Seat of Mr. Heron.
Thou of an independent mind, With soul resolv’d, with soul resign’d; Prepar’d Power’s proudest frown to brave, Who wilt not be, nor have a slave; Virtue alone who dost revere, Thy own reproach alone dost fear— Approach this shrine, and worship here.
