DON JUAN.

CANTO IX.

I.

OH, Wellington! (or "Vilainton"-for Fame

Sounds the heroic syllables both ways;

France could not even conquer your great name,
But punned it down to this facetious phrase—

Beating or beaten she will laugh the same)—

You have obtained great pensions and much praise;

Glory like yours should any dare gainsay,

Humanity would rise, and thunder “ Nay!” (')
