Verses by the late Dr. Beekley, Bishop of Cloyne published
in 1751, upon the then prospect of planting Arts and
Learning in America.
The Muse, disgusted at an age and clime, 
Barren of every glorious theme, 
In distant lands now waits a better time, 
Producing subjects worthy fame. . . 
There shall be sung another golden age, 
The rise of empire and of arts, 
The good and great inspiring epic rage, 
The wisest heads and noblest hearts.
. . . [2 more verses]
