Macedonia sends forth her invincible race ;For a time they abandon the cave and the chase :But those scarfs of blood-red shall be redder, beforeThe sabre is sheathed and the battle is oer. 5. Then the pirates of Parga that dwell by the waves,And teach the pale Franks what it is to be slaves,Shall leave on the beach the long galley and oar,And track to his covert the captive on shore. 6.
