POETRY.
tt AIL LIBERTY ! A glorious word.
In other countries scarcely heard.
Or heard but as a thing of course,
Without or energy or force ;
Here felt, enjoy’d, ador’d (he springs
Unaw’d by tyrants or by Kings,
Fr-efli blooming from our mother earth
And parents whence (he owns her births
In us Ihe lives, and in return
Bids in our Breads her genius burn ;
Bids us with all those blessings live
Which liberty alone can give,
Or nobly with that spirit die.
Which makes death more than viftory. .
Hail those old patriots, on whose tongue
Persuasion in the fen ate hung,
While they this sacred canfe maintain’d 1
Hail those old chiefs', to honour train’d,
Who spread, when other methods fail’d,
War’s bloody banner, and prevail’d !
Shall men like thefc unmention’d, deep
Promiscuous with the common heap,
And (gratitude forbid the crime)
Be carried down the stream of Time
In shoals, unnoticed and forgot,
On Lethe’s stream, like flags, to rot ?
No-—they shall live, and each fair name
Recorded in the Book of fame
Founded on honor’s basis faft
As the round earth, to ages last.
Some virtues vanifli with our breath.
But these shall flourilh after death.
Old Time himfelf, his scythe thrown by.
And blended with eternity*
Shall twine for them a lasting crown,
And fame shall publifli their renown. - - —

retarded the Sale of Tickets, and rendered it irrt r
possible to draw this Lottery so soon as was etpefted j
but as all tlie other Lotteries in the Colony are now
drawn, and a cpnfiderable part of these Tickets-ar^
already fold', the Managers think that they have a
reasonable Profped pf being able to draw by the firft
Day of September next, if not fooner,and re com*
mend it to all who are disposed to try their Luck itt
a Lottery so favourable for the Adventurers,to make
speedy application for Tickets, least they should be
