On the American Heroes who bravely fell in Defence of the
dearest Rights and Freedom of their Country, in the late
Battles at Lexington and Charles-Town.
  How sleep the brave, who sink to rest,
  By all their country's wishes blest!
  When Spring, with dewy fingers cold,
  Returns to deck their hallowed mould,
. . . [2 more lines]
  By angel hands their knell is rung,
  By forms unseen their dirge is sung.
. . . [4 more lines]
