15 Mar 1776:21 (3/115)
On hearing the Bells toll, in commemoration of the bloody
massacre in Boston, March 5th 1770.
Hark! hark! the solemn knell from yon tall spire
Recalls to mind that fatal day;
That gloomy hour, when Satan's vengeful ire
Seiz'd guiltless victims, as it's prey.
. . . [7 more verses]
