Boston, . . . Oct. 25. It being the King's accession-day .
. . It is said the officers intended a grand assembly this
evening, but the ladies of the town could not be persuaded
into the propriety of indulging themselves in musick and
dancing with those gentlemen who had been sent hither in
order to dragoon us into measures which appear calculated to
enslave and ruin us.
For this, when beauty's blooming charms are past,
Your praise, fair nymphs, to latest times shall last.
