Greaf Sir, from great Britannia's Isle,
Great for her Hastings, Darlington, and

Come, with thy. double-deckers, fearful

Britannia's roaring thunders OH our shore
While Fear each democratic war-mai

From Mississippi's outlet to the lakes
Besides, to get with noisy gun and rocket
Something to fill thy stomach and Thy peck
Sheep, Bullocks, Cows, with NANCY Pigs
and Shoats,
Slippers of Ladies, picnic gloves ant
coats;
With many another rare, and glorious
thing,
To swell the triumphs of Great George, thy
King
And yet, dread pilferer of our beef and ba
con,
think in some things you may be mista
Ken.
Thou'lt scout perhaps at Darlington, and
say,
"The Poets impudence is past belief
Hastings was great and glorious in his
ways"
harrington was nothing but thief"
I'd ask however, sir, with modest bow,
If Darlington was thiefsh-what ari
thou i?
There are, I know, who rail at Htie
rogues
Would hang them for shirt, or pair OF
, brogues,
And yet for great ones, modestly can wink
AT crimes from which humanity would
shrink.
I'm not Of those, or would my arm ere faul-
ter
To give the greatest rogue the toughest

Besides, this Darlington, though true he

And plunged his rocking dagger in his

While the pale partner of his bosom raves

Thou man of mighty name and little

Rear Admiral of the blue, stand forth
Hath not thy bloody myrmidons done
this ?
Plundered the wretched poor, in terroi
fled,
Murdered the dying Kirby, in his bed,
And solid with savage fame the lips o.
bliss
Snatch'd from bright beauty's check its
yermil bloom,
And hurl'd the outraged victim to the

Yes! this thou'st done-and, coward-like
the while,
Shrunk from manly contest with the

Contending not for glory, but for spoil
Plundering church or pilfering a

While Terror pictured to the guilty mind
