MARGUERITE OF FRANCE.
As they gather'd round the helpless One,
Again a noble band!
"We are thy warriors, Lady!
True to the Cross and thee!
The spirit of thy kindling words
On every sword shall be!
Rest, with thy fair child on thy breast,
Rest—we will guard thee well!
St Dennis for the Lily-flower,
And the Christian citadel!"
