Grenada's gate was storm'd, the cross of red
Fix'd on the Moorish wall, the Frenchman fled:
Sebastian bleeding to his tent was borne.
First in the charge, the fire, the escalade,
A ball had struck him; agonized and torn,
He saw his standard on the rampart soar,
Join'd in the shout, and sank, and saw no more.
