FOR MR. RICHARD BOARDMAN.
With zeal for God, with love of souls inspired,Nor awed by dangers, nor by labours tired,
Boardman in distant worlds proclaims the word
To multitudes, and turns them to the Lord:
But soon the bloody waste of war he mourns,
And loyal from rebellion's seat returns;
Nor yet at home, on eagles' pinions flies,
And in a moment soars to paradise.
