FAM ILREUNION PERGUSX)N REUNION RULE DRITANNIIA 200th Annlversa.y August 1740-1940 The British Empire, during this manth, la celebrating the 200th anniversary ai the biithday ai ber "second national anthem" - "Rule Britannia, Britannia rules the waves," and siging it witb grenIer gusto and deeper doter- mination than ever before. This soul-stirring sang ai triumph was given to the public about the, same time as "God Save the King," and like its runnig mate, its author- sbip la shrouded with uncertainty. Historic -records tell us it was sung for the first lime August 1, 1740, an tbe beautiful grounds ai Cieiden Hause in Berkshire, the home ai Frederick, Prince ai Wales. The cream ai society had gathered there on Ibat occasion in ilolwery, colorful costumes, ta hear a new masque or opera wbich was being performed in honor ai tie anniversary ai King George II's accession and the birthday ai Uic baby princess Augusta. The opera was called "Alfred1' and lauded that famaus English King. It concluded witb the rousing sang. "Rule, Britan- nia, Britannia rules the waves, Britons ixever, neyer, neyer shaîl be slaves." The performance was sucb an unbounded success that the Prince conxmanded iltat be repeated the iollowing evening and, fram that time an, the grand finale bas been the palitical sang ai the British nation. It la be- cause ai ber determination that "Enitons nover shall be slaves" that she la at waî to-day. The composer ai Uic air was a famous musician ai that cia - Thomas Arne, wbo la alsa credited witb compasing Uic lune for aur National Antbem. Nobody can tell for certain who wrote the wqrd¶s "Rule Britannia," for two authois workcd together an Uic masque or opera ta which. it be- longs,-James Thompson and Da- vid Mallot. Controversy aver the real auîborship was a long drawn out affair, but credit la largely in favour ai Tbompson as Uic style, metre, etc., bas mùch in common with other writings ai this quite notcd poet, while Uic naine ai Mallet, as a writer, la almost for- gotten. Regardîces ai authorship, abscurity, controversy, Uic sang bas been a tremendaus driving force i British bistary and its influence can nover be measured or estimatcd. Rule Britannia Wbcn Britain fiist, at Heaven's commiand, Arosc from aut the azure main, This was Uic charter of ber land, And guardian angeis sung the strain: Rule Britannia! Britannia rulcs Uic waves! Brntons never shall be slaves. The nations nat sa blest as tbee Must in their tuin ta tyrants fail; Whilst thau shalt flourlsh, great .and free, The dread and envy ai tbem ail. 5h11l more majestic shalt thau risc, Marc dieadful fram each for- eign stroke; As Uic laud blast that toars Uic skies Serves but ta roat tby native oak. Thee ha ughty tyranla ne'er shal lame; Ail their attempts ta bond thee down Wiil but arouse Uiy generaus flame, IAnd work their wae and Uiy renown. Ta Uiee bclongs Uic rural relgn; Thy cities shail with commerce shine; Ail thine shail be thc subject main, And every shore il circlea thine. Rule Britannia! Britannia rules the waves! Brntons nover shaU be slaves.
