Analysis of Patriotic Ode

James McIntyre 1828 (Forres) – 1906



Written during the last excitement on the Canadian frontier.

Rejoice, rejoice, we all do stand,
United in one mighty band ;
No traitors in our land we find,
All one in heart all one in mind,
Resolute in their opinion-
None shall conquer our Dominion !
For every man with dauntless mien
Will rally round our flag and queen.
