casion congenial to the sentiments which pervaded the
hilarity of the day :

Behold 'midst the storms that late ravaged mankind,
And left in their fury such havoc behind ;
How many old friends round the board we can trace,
But not one amongst them that wears a new face.
The company did not separate-till a late hours
co long may such worth this Foundation display,
And dr* with its lustre the feast of this day •
And Reser may the eitritingr of EDWARD be ;old.
They've fuch,Pot Uwe and yellow when they wear Esalrad ntrighit.'
