AN ELEGY ON THE DEATH OF GENERAL MONTGOMERY.
  Death ere thou has killed another
  Brave, and wise and good as he!
  Time shall throw a dart at thee."  Spen.
What mean those tears, that thus effusive flow?
Why throbs each breast with agonizing woe?
Montgomery's dead! --a name by all rever'd;
By patriots lov'd--by dastard tyrants fear'd.
. . . [39 more lines, signed] Juvenis
