New-York, Oct. 16.
THE ACQUISITION; OR BRITANNIA TRIUMPHANT.
Most Humbly Inscribed to His Royal Highness Prince William
Henry,
By His Royal Highness's Most obedient Truly devoted, and
Very humble Servant, Samuel Whitchurch.
Diomede, off New-York, 1st October, 1782.
No invocations to the tuneful Nine
No soft, no love-sick strains, my Muse! be thine;
No peaceful scenes I paint, where tender swains
Attune their rural pipes to melting strains.
