    The god-like hero sate
    On his imperial throne:
    His valiant peers were placed around,
    Their brows with roses and with myrtles bound
    (So should desert in arms be crowned).
    The lovely Thais by his side,
    Sate like a blooming Eastern bride
    In flower of youth and beauty's pride.
    Happy, happy, happy pair!
    None but the brave,
    None but the brave,
    None but the brave deserve the fair.

Multi; sed omnes illacrimabiles
Urguentur ignotique sacro.]

The brave man seeks not popular applause,
Nor, overpower'd with arms, deserts his cause;
Unsham'd, though foil'd, he does the best he can,
Force is of brutes, but honor is of man.
