EPIGRAM.
Said to be wrote by the late Rebel General Lee, on Himself.
Sors de l'aveugle erreur, donc vous 'etes seluit,
Pour voi en quit itat le fort vous a seduet;
Vonc pais vous hail, le Congres est sans son,
Contre tant et enemies que vou reile--t--il, moi.
In English.
Seduc'd by error, to misfortune born,
Deceiv'd by Congress, m[y] country's scorn;
While foes oppress me, friends I seek in vain,
What hopes are left--Yes, I myself remain.
