Proposals for printing by subscription the poetical works of
the late Mr. Thomas Godfrey, of this place. . . [description
of the offering, 1/2 column].
Extracts.
From the tragedy of the Prince of Parthia.
CURIOSITY.
Curiosity's another name for Man,
The blazing meteor streaming thro' the air,
Commands our wonder and admiring eyes,
With eager gaze we trace the lucent path,
Til spent at length it shrinks to native nothing.
While the bright stars, which ever steady glow,
Unheeded shine, and blest the worlds below.
. . . [1/2 column, the rest of the piece plus subscription
information]
