Art thou a Patriot Traveller? on this field <br />Did FALKLAND fall the blameless and the brave <br />Beneath a Tyrant's banners: dost thou boast <br />Of loyal ardor? HAMBDEN perish'd here, <br />The rebel HAMBDEN, at whose glorious name <br />The heart of every honest Englishman <br />Beats high with conscious pride. Both uncorrupt, <br />Friends to their common country both, they fought, <br />They died in adverse armies. Traveller! <br />If with thy neighbour thou should'st not accord, <br />In charity remember these good men, <br />And quell each angry and injurious thought.<br /><br />Robert Southey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/inscription-02-for-a-column-at-newbury/
