Boston, Jun 9. . .  The Rev. Mr. George Whitefield having
preached his farewell sermon on Tuesday last, at the Old-
South, intends setting out this day or to-morrow, for the
southward.
ADDRESSED TO THE REV. MR. WHITEFIELD, ON HIS DEPARTURE.
And must thou go?  Farewell thou sacred guide!
God speed thy labours, God thy strength support,
So great the harvest, and the field so wide,
So few the lab'rers, and the day so short:
. . . [3 lines, then]
Take all we can--a blessing and a song
. . . [12 more lines]
