THE FATAL CONQUEST.  A Poem.
Occasioned by the death of the brave Sir Richard Greenville,
in the year of 1591, after sustaining, in the revenge, an
English man of war, a fight of 15 hours against the Spanish
Armada of 53 sail.
  Historic muse, awake!---and from the shade, 
  Where, long forgotten, sleep the noble dead, 
  Some worthy chief select!---whose martial flame, 
  May rouse Britannia's sons to love of fame!
. . . [102 lines follow, to be continued.]
