NYJ-N.775.060
22 Jun 1775:41 (1694)
From the Pennsylvania Magazine, for May 1775.
The Irishman's Epistle to the Officers and Troops of Boston.
By my faith but I think ye're all makers of bulls,
With your brains in your breeches, your guts in you skulls,
Get home with your muskets, and put up your swords,
And look in your books for the meaning of words.
. . . [14 more lines]
And to look on the ground, like a parcel of noodles.
And sing, how the Yankees have beaten the doodles?
. . . [2 more lines, signed] Paddy.
