    EXTRACT PROM THE ZENITH OF GLORY
A MANUSCRIPT ODE.
Sir Peter Parker's and General Clinton's Attack on
Port Sullivan, 1776.
Q IR Peter, loosed the bellying fail;
His squadron caught the riling gale,
And swept the wat'ry plain ;
With them, in priile of warlike force,
Erave Clinton ihap'd an equal course,
For Charle/lon * rich domain.
Forth from the camp with rapid haste,
Athwart a funbuint, sultry waste,
Zee's chosen columns sped :
Nor fwiftcr posts the rufbjng Heed
When urg'd along with doubling speed,
Earth scarcely feels him tread.
Now past the Ihelving sand forin'd bar,
At once begamtfee storm of war
Wild pouring on in flame.
Here Paikcr's the tar infpirM,
'■There Moultrie's voice his soldiers tir'd,
And Jafpcr purchased fame.
On purpled billows (laughter rode.
From deck to deck fell carnage strode.
Death fought the bold—the brave.
fJeav'n, earth and sea were veii'd in fmolce,
ShaUs, mortars, cannon, raging broke,
Borne upward from the wave.
In vain the toil—firm, unsubdued,
The itrong Palme toe tow'ring flood,
From dawn, till darkling night
When the whifft ensign's given sign,
Recalled the fhatter'd, finking line,
Arid clos'd the horrid fight.
