Ye American people, would you like to know
Whence, upon you these evils, and mischiefs did

| Give US your attention, very brief Space,
While their origin, history, and progress we
trace.
Before time began but hsw long we CAN'T tell,
mighty Archangel, in heaven did dwelli
The Son Of the morniags and glorious was he !;
| But higher in glory, he wanted to be.
Through the world he il known by many aname
But, Abolition, We find is his true ancient name.
To abolish the order Of heaven he tried;
And in his presumption its Sovereign defed.
In the pride of his heart, be aspir'd to gain
| A higher position in heas' N to reign
But for his ambition, he quickly was hurrd
Far, far, down below, from the heavenly world,
To csry hot quarters, in which to remain
Forever in torment, in sorrow and pain.
But in process of time, he made his way ont,
And for new world, he straitway took his rout,
Into Eden'sfair Garden he enter'd one morn,
The picture of envy, wrath, malice and scern.
To try to abolish whatever he could
In this nsscworld discover, fair, lovely and good
He sat himself down full Of anguish and pain,
With malice and hatred to madden his brain.
He contrasted the beauty and grandeur all round.
With the horrors aud gloom Of his own burning
ground; 80
The amsrasial sweets as they pass'd on the gale,
With the hot suiph'rus yapors he had to inhale.
Then he said, as he -ssThis is all very well,
"But il don't make this provence of hell,

sBut seftly-my passions-I bid you be still

"In revenge for my rout; and expulsion from
heaven;
"To the regions Of torment to which Tam driv'n!

civil,

ssAnd though am from the dark regions Of night
ssI'll appear in her eyes, as an angel Of light
81 must act well my part, to secure my prey
COR in deeper disgrace, Pill be driven away
"Stay, Ill enter that serpent, it suits my disguise
f'They say it is cunning dec,itful and wise:
| Sand with its assistance, exert all nay power,
'sTo turn into sorrow and wo, this, ,falr land.
