I.

Some drink to Friendship, some to Love,-
Through whom the world is fair, perdie!-
But I to one these others prove,
Who leaps ’mid lions for a glove,
Or dies to set another free-

Free-faced he stands so all may see;

Or Love-reward he does not ask,
The deed is done whateer it be-
So here’s to Loyalty.
