[Darksheare]

I was backed into the treeline with my car out in the middle of nowhere so that I could be alone to draw.
The bird buzzed by and then twittered at me for a few seconds before heading off to parts unknown.
Could be either depending on point of view.

Land of Hope and Glory

(1) 1902 Version: VI. Land of Hope and Glory. Finale (Contralto Solo and Tutti)

              1  Land of hope and glory, Mother of the free,

              2  How may we extol thee, who are born of thee?

              3  Truth and Right and Freedom, each a holy gem,

              4  Stars of solemn brightness, weave thy diadem.

              5  Tho' thy way be darkened, still in splendour drest,

              6  As the star that trembles o'er the liquid West.

              7  Throned amid the billows, throned inviolate,

              8  Though hast reigned victorious, thou has smiled at fate.

              9  Land of hope and glory, Fortress of the free,

            10  How may we extol thee, praise thee, honour thee?

            11  Hark, a mighty nation maketh glad reply;

            12  Lo, our lips are thankful, lo, our hearts are high!

            13  Hearts in hope uplifted, loyal lips that sing;

            14  Strong in faith and freedom, we have crowned our King!
