(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

　　And liking³ best that state republican

　　Where every man is Kinglike and no man

　　Is crowned above his fellows， yet I see，

　　Spite of this modern fret⁴ for Liberty，

　　Better the rule of One， whom all obey，

　　Than to let clamorous⁵ demagogues betray

　　Our freedom with the kiss of anarchy⁶.

　　Wherefore I love them not whose hands profane⁷

　　Plant the red flag upon the piled-up street

　　For no right cause， beneath whose ignorant reign⁸

　　Arts， Culture， Reverence⁹， Honour， all things fade，

　　Save Treason and the dagger¹⁰ of her trade，

　　Or Murder with his silent bloody¹¹ feet.
