William Wordsworth, from Ode to Duty, posted in honor of GW's Birthday
Stern Daughter of the Voice of God!
Oh Duty! if that name thou love
Who art a light to guide, a rod
To check the erring, and reprove;
Thou, who art victory and law
When empty terrors overawe;
From vain temptations dost set free,
And calm'st the weary strife of frail humanity.
