Extract from the Dialogue on Peace, pronounced at the public
Commencement in the College of this city.
Not with more pleasure, o'er the fragrant lawn
Sports the fleet hare, or bounds the exulting fawn,
When to black storms succeeds, the solar ray,
And gilds each beauty of the smiling day,
. . . [20 more lines]
No Drum shall animate the soldier's breast,
Nor piercing fife arouse him from his rest,
The trump shrill-sounding, and the clang of arms,
Shall make the plain no more with dire alarms,
. . . [30 more lines]
