• Folksong Setting: "Womankind", "The hero may perish his country to save"; WoO 156 №8, of 12 Scottish songs (1818), another setting - WoO 154 №10

The hero may perish his country to save,
And he lives in the records of fame;
The sage may the dungeons of tyranny brave --
Ever honour'd and blest be his name!
But virtue, that silently toils or expires,
No wreath for the brow to entwine,
That asks but a smile -- but a fond sigh requires --
O woman! that virtue is thine!
