TO THE KING OF ENGLAND.  Wednesday, November 11, 1778
  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]
[attributed to]  Common Sense.  Philadelphia.  [added in ms,
"T. Payne"]
