True bliss
Few '.things -of note have happened
We last our greetings brought,
And all we have to tell you now,
Requires but little thought.
Our Ship of State still rides the waves,
Despite the stormy weather,—
The reason - Wily is easy told :
Her friends stick close together.
Pirates have hung upon her track,
And held false lights in view— .
They can't seduce her from- her course,
Her Helmsman's bold; and •true.
They might as well give up the chase,
She's far beyond them all—
SONS OF THE SiRES, NOR ANY NAME /
CAN TENH'T TIER TO HER FALL.
But ,let us come, now nearer home, °
And see what has been done,
What - game have WE been playing HERE,
Who's lost ? And who . has won ?
Our glorious State has raised licr voice,
And settled all dispute—
She thundered out in tones most plain,
"PROSCRIPTION HERE WONT SUIT."
