" CHARACTER of the HAPPY WARRIOR.   Who is the happy Warrior? Who is he   Whom every Man in arms should wish to be?   —It is the generous Spirit, who, when brought   Among the tasks of real life, hath wrought   Upon the plan that pleased his childish thought:   Whose high endeavours are an inward light   That make the path before him always bright:   Who, with a natural instinct to discern   What knowledge can perform, is diligent to learn;   Abides by this resolve, and stops not there, 10   But makes his moral being his prime care;   Who, doom'd to go in company with Pain,   And Fear, and Bloodshed, miserable train! "
