A New SONG.
IEA S E angry parlies— slay you quills,
A ' No more our p«ace invade :
Yon burnin" mountain d. inks the rill,
Which greens the Hoping glade.
Jia'k I how it roars, with tnbicd heat !
And belches livid fire ;
A while it quakes, and throbs, and beats,
And then the fbrwes expire.
Juli so the foods that vex the (late,
Shall cease their haplcfs soar;
Rrhellion’s rage Ihoil loon abate,
And tumults be no more.
So when black florins have vex’d the main,
And ril’d the lower sea,
The waves by toiling, purg’d, again
• Their usual tides obey.
