"Men of England, heirs of Glory, Heroes of unwritten story, Nurslings of one mighty Mother, Hopes of her, and one another! What is Freedom? You can tell That which Slavery is too well, For its very name has grown To an echo of your own Let a vast assembly be, And with great solemnity Declare with measured words, that you Are, as God has made you, free. The old laws of England—they Whose reverend heads with age are grey, Children of a wiser day; And whose solemn voice must be Your own echo—Liberty! Rise, like lions after slumber In unvanquishable number! Shake your chains to earth, like dew Which in sleep had fallen on you: Ye are many—they are few!" “Mask of Anarchy” By Percy Bysshe Shelley Background of “Mask of Anarchy”: The political poem “Mask of Anarchy” was written by Percy Bysshe Shelley, following the Peterloo Massacre in 1819 when pro-democracy and anti-poverty protesters in Manchester were brutally dispersed by armed cavalry. This is a powerful call for freedom, political representation and nonviolent resistance against oppression. These are its final verses. “Romanticism emphasized on inspiration and freedom of thought”. Justify the statement with reference to poems of Percy Shelley.
