AN ELEGY ON THE IMMORTAL GENERAL MONTGOMERY, 
who nobly fell in the ever memorable assault, on the
Fortress of Quebeck, on the 31st of December, 1775.
  Can ought forbid, to sing in plaintive strains, 
  Of brave Montgomery's lamented death;
  Who greatly fell on Abram's frozen plains, 
  Supporting freedom to his latest breath?
