| Citation | IL.779.003 11 Jan 1779:21 (1/31) TO THE KING OF ENGLAND. The rain pours down--the city looks forlorn-- And gloomy subjects suit the howling morn. Close by my fire, with doors and windows fast, And sweetly shelter'd from the driving blast, To gayer thoughts I bid a day's adieu, To spend a scene of solitude with you. . . . [62 more lines follow, signed] Common Sense. Philadelphia, November 1778. |
