PEP.777.137
29 Nov 1777:5581 (3/426)
From the Gentleman's Magazine for April last.
Inscription on a curious chamber stove, in the form of an
urn, contrived in such a manner as to make the flame descend
instead of rise from the fire, invented by the celebrated
Dr. Franklin. Written by an episcopal clergyman, at
Brunswick, in New-Jersey.
Like a Newton sublimely he soar'd
To a summit before unattain'd;
New regions of science explor'd,
And the palm of philosophy gain'd.
