Serious reflections at church, on Sunday the 9th. of June in
the morning.
What brought me here, -custom and fancy flee;
I have escaped the danger of the sea;
My soul give land unto deity.
But ah my God, this is a den of thieves;
What is it [ ]--angelic forms deceives,
. . . [11 lines]
In the afternoon at P----n meeting.
Now will I guard against my morning fall,
Eyes by your leave my ears shall have it all;
. . . [4 lines]
In the evening's walk.
Passing those fields where Negroe slaves are found,
At rustick gestures to a dismal sound,
I into a place arriv'd, in which is laid,
Poor Negroe's ashes, when his debts are paid.
. . . [39 more lines, signed] Damon
