Mr. Franklin, The following is a hymn, on the nativity of
Christ; which please to give room in your next. . .
  What sounds harmonious strike the ears!
  See! darkness flies, the light appears,
  The sun a purer beam displays,
  And shines with more distinguish'd rays;
  . . . [10 lines]
  Whilst quires of Angles hovering on the wing,
  Sang hymns and anthems to the new born King.
  . . . [15 more lines]
