Such dreadful havoc 'mong the loyal few;

Vile murders, robbery, consuming fire;

Mothers, with tender infants, starv'd, expire;

Daggers and death in ev'ry hideous face

Threat'ning destruction to the northern race;

Villains contending with a dev'lish joy

Who first shall plunder, or who first destroy;

Successful tyranny and laurell'd vice,

The gods assisting him, who Heav'n defies;

Seeming to spurn the good, th' illustrious youth,
