[Boston] In a window east of the balcony, was placed a large
transparent frame, containing the following verses.
Canst thou, spectator, view this crimson'd scene,
And not reflect what these sad portraits mean?
Or can thy slaughter'd brethren's guiltless gore,
Revenge, from year to year, in vain implore?
. . . [5 more verses]
