Scandinavia
By James Thomson (18341882)(From Liberty)
T
To wintry Scandinavia’s utmost bound;
There I the manly race, the parent hive
Of the mixed kingdoms, formed into a state
More regularly free. By keener air
Their genius purged, and tempered hard by frost,
Tempest and toil their nerves, the sons of those
Whose only terror was a bloodless death,
They wise and dauntless still sustain my cause.
