The Watchman.  Letter V.
Being a solemn address to the colonies, on the present
posture of affairs; particularly to Pennsylvania and the
southern district.
  Fame, valor, conquest, grac'd the Spartan state, 
  And all confess'd the virtuous were the great.
  Then for the brave, the fair reserv'd her charms, 
  And scorn'd to clasp a coward in her arms.
  The trumpet call'd--she seiz'd the sword and shield;
. . . [9 more lines, signed] Prolog to Agis.
