. . . [30 lines of introduction, signed] Philo-Musus.
AN ODE IN HONOUR OF NEW-ENGLAND,
(on their important conquest of Cape-Breton from the
French,) of ever glorious memory.
1. Shall brave New-England's glory fly
Thro' earth, Air, sea, and fill the sky,
Resounding loud applause:
Shall distant poets raise the strain,
And neighb'ring muses on the main,
Be silent in the cause?
2. . . . [2 lines]
And strike the sounding lyre:
. . . [3 lines]
3. . . . [1 line]
Or like great Horace touch the String,
. . . [4 lines]
4. . . .[2 lines]
First let him grace the song . . . [3 lines]
. . . [9 more verses; last line:]
Sing loud the glorious cause.
