Epigram.  On the Seahorse, with the astronomers on board,
being attacked by a French frigate:
  Mars, inform'd that some wits, with inquisitive eye,
  Design'd into Venus's motions to pry,
  Dispatch'd a bold warrior from Lewis's fleet,
  The Caitiffs to seize, and their purpose defeat;
  But Neptune strait sent a seahorse to their aid,
  And safe o'er the ocean his fav'rites convey'd.
