Citation | NYWJ.742.005 25 Jan 1742:31 (426) My neighbour Gravelook to preserve his store Bolts ev'ry window and locks ev'ry door, And if a thief into his mansion breaks And the least portion of his treasure takes; . . . [10 lines] But when his injur'd country claims his aid, When foreign robbers would her rights invade, When the drums beat, and trumpets sound to arms And self defence each gen'rous bosom warms; . . . [14 more lines] |
