ON THE REPORT OF A BRITISH FLEET BEING TO BE SENT TO THE
BALTICK.
When war subsided in the south,
Bellona seem'd to close her mouth;
Her cheeks were smooth, her arms were slung,
And down her trumpet careless hung;
. . . [10 lines]
Whoever leads the martial dance,
From Sweden upwards, down to France;
'Tis thine to join some purchas'd friend,
And pay the musick--in the end.
