The nations, not so blest as thee,Must, in their turns, to tyrants fall; While thou shalt flourish great and free,The dread and envy of them all. "Rule, Britannia! rule the waves:"Britons never will be slaves." Still more majestic shalt thou rise,More dreadful, from each foreign stroke;As the loud blast that tears the skies,Serves but to root thy native oak. "Rule, Britannia! rule the waves:"Britons never will be slaves." Thee haughty tyrants ne'er shall tame:All their attempts to bend thee down,Will but arouse thy generous flame;But work their woe, and thy renown. "Rule, Britannia! rule the waves:"Britons never will be slaves." To thee belongs the rural reign;Thy cities shall with commerce shine: All thine shall be the subject main,And every shore it circles thine. "Rule, Britannia! rule the waves:"Britons never will be slaves." The Muses, still with freedom found,Shall to thy happy coast repair; Blest Isle! With matchless beauty crown'd,And manly hearts to guard the fair. "Rule, Britannia! rule the waves:"Britons never will be slaves.” Follow me at: www.thehistorychap.com Instagram:https://bit.ly/3iySrAj Facebook:https://bit.ly/37IUfkH    / thehistorychap   My name is Chris Green and I love to share stories from British history. Not just because they are interesting but because, good or bad, they have shaped the world we live in today. History should not be stuffy or a long list of dates or kings & queens. So rather than lectures or Youtube animations, I tell stories that bring the past to life. My aim is to be chat as if I were having a coffee or meal with you.

Just for the record, I do have a history degree in Medieval & Modern history from the University of Birmingham.
