26 Jan 1761:11,12 (442)
The following piece, on the death of his late majesty King
George the Second, being wrote by an ingenious young
gentleman in this province, we imagine will be agreeable to
our readers.
Why heaves thy bosom with continual sighs?
Hard on thy heart what dire misfortune lies?
Why hangs this gloom sad low'rnig on thy brow,
Say muse, and whence thy trick'ling sorrows flow?
