5 Jun 1777:32 (21)
The following SONG was composed by a loyal subject, for the
4th day of June, 1777.
Tune, --  Rule, Britannia.
  Blest cause of genial life, arise,
  Illume the wide, unbounded skies;
  Propitious smile, and chear the morn,
  This day illustrious George was born.
Chorus:
  Rule, Great George! Thy injur'd rights regain,
  And Britannia's glory long maintain,
  Hail! happy day, oh glorious period come,
  When traitors meet their final doom.
