Remainder of the verses sent from Bedford, composed by some
of the ladies at their meeting to resolve against tea,
supposed to have been directed to the gentlemen of the
place.
What you can raise upon your farms
We'll eat and drink with hearts so free,
The coarsest food we chuse to eat
Before we'll loose our liberty.
