[From the Massachusetts Spy]. . . 
In the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and
seventy-seven, Burgoyne and his whole army surrendered.
Seven marks the crisis of the rising states,
When Britain's hero bow'd to valliant Gates.
In seventy-seven our troops to conquest led,
Our foes fell captives, or like dastards fled.
. . . [10 more lines, signed] An Observer.
