ON THE NEWS OF THE ARRIVAL OF OUR FLEET.
Bella, berridfa bella.
et lawrencem multo spumentem sanguine cerne.
Virg.
Where shall an instant muse such numbers find,
As may be equal to our joy of mind,
For the good news that decorates this sheet,
Admiral Boscawen's arriv'd with his fleet.

Now let the trumpet's terrible from far,
In louder clangor animate the war,
While rumbling drums in fuller consorts beat,
And echoing hills the loud alarm repeat;
