[Translation of Latin ode to Shirley in last paper]
William Shirley, Esq; Governor of the Province of the
Masachusetts, &c. On his return from a treaty with the
Eastern Indians at Falmouth, 1754.
  Great leader of our martial band,
  While war & tumult round us reign'd,
  Late on Accadia's shore;
  Your triumphs quell'd our hostile foes;
  Raz'd their proud towers; and our repose
  In peace, sprung from your power;
. . . [13 more 6-line verses, signed:] Philo Muses.
