Crossword-Solution: NEWYORK 7 letters, 55 clues 🏆 scrabble score: 17

Newyork ascends o'er Hudson's seaward isles, And flings the sunbeams from her glittering tiles; Albania, opening thro the distant wood, Rolls her rich treasures on her parent flood; Amid a thousand sails young Boston laves, High looms majestic Newport o'er the waves, Patapsco's bay contracts his yielding side, As spreading Baltimore invades his tide; Aspiring Richmond tops the bank of James, And Charleston sways her two contending streams.

Where fortless Falmouth, looking o'er her bay, In terror saw the approaching thunders play, The fire begins; the shells o'er arching fly, And shoot a thousand rainbows thro the sky; On Charlestown spires, on Bedford roofs they light, Groton and Fairfield kindle from the flight, Norwalk expands the blaze; o'er Reading hills High flaming Danbury the welkin fills; Esopus burns, Newyork's delightful fanes And sea-nursed Norfolk light the neighboring plains.

Triumphant to Newyork's ill forted post Britannia turns her vast amphibious host, That seas and storms, obedient to her hand, Heave and discharge on every distant land; Fleets, floating batteries shake Manhattan's shore, And Hellgate rocks reverberate the roar.

Come then, curst goddess, where thy votaries reign, Inhale their incense from the land and main; Come to Newyork, their conquering arms to greet, Brood o'er their camp and breathe along their fleet; The brother chiefs of Howe's illustrious name Demand thy labors to complete their fame.

Hosts captive bow and move behind his arm, And hosts before him wing the sounding storm; When the glad sea salutes their fainting sight, And Albion's fleet wide thundering aids their flight; They steer to sad Newyork their hasty way, And rue the toils of Monmouth's mournful day.
