Ducett this gentleman was once a merchant from Canadia, from misfortunes aded to the loss of a Cargo Sold to the late judge Turner he has become Somewhat reduced, he has a Charming wife an eligent Situation on the hill Serounded by orchards & a excellent gardain.

Where Spring's coy steps in cold Canadia stray, And joyless seasons hold unequal sway, He saw the pine its daring mantle rear, Break the rude blast, and mock the brumal year, Shag the green zone that bounds the boreal skies, And bid all southern vegetation rise.

And why, sweet Minstrel, from the harp of fame Withhold so long that once resounding name? The chief who, steering by the boreal star, O'er wild Canadia led our infant war, In desperate straits superior powers display'd, Burgoyne's dread scourge, Montgomery's ablest aid; Ridgefield and Compo saw his valorous might With ill-arm'd swains put veteran troops to flight.

Canadia crowds her Gallic colons there, Ontario's yelling tribes torment the air, Wild Huron sends his lurking hordes from far, Insidious Mohawk swells the woodland war; Scalpers and ax-men rush from Erie's shore, And Iroquois augments the war whoop roar; While all his ancient troops his train supply, Half Europe's banners waving thro the sky; Deep squadron'd horse support his endless flanks, And park'd artillery frowns behind the ranks.
