ON THE DEATH OF HIS EXCELLENCY GENERAL MONTGOMERY.
. . . [3 lines, signed] Spen.
What mean those tears, that thus effusive flow?
Why throbs each breast with agonizing woe?
Montgomery's dead! - a name by all rever'd;
By patriots lov'd - by dastard tyrants fear'd
. . . [10 lines]
No more, to war, the drum or fife shall raise
That head, encircled with immortal bays!
