she was between seven and eight years old. She
soon acquired knowledge Of the English language,
and made some progress in the Latin. While she
was slave in the family Of Mr.. John Wheatey in
Boston, she wrote volume ofpoems. Ai'ca may
well boast, that one of her daughters, not twenty
years Of age, should produce the following lines
They are extracted from tho poem on the "lmagl-
nation.
Though winter frowns, to Fancy's raptured eyes
The fields may flourish, and gay scenes arise;
The frozen deeps may break their iron bands,
And bid their waters murmur o er the sands:
fair Flora may resume her fragrant reign,
And with her iowery riches deck the plain;
Syvanus may diffuse his honors round,
And all the forest may with leaves be crown'd;
Show'rs may descend, and dews their gems dis
close,
and nectar sparkle on the blooming rose.
She was afterwards married to a MIR. Peters. She
died at Boston, Dec. 5, 1884, aged thirty one years
