 | A new Proclamation! |  |
By THOMAS GAGE, whom British frenzy,
Stil'd honourable and Excellency,
O'er Massachusett's sent to stand here
Vice Admiral and Chief Commander;
Whose power Gubernatorial still
Extends as far as Bunker's-Hill,
Whose Admiralty reaches clever,
Full half a mile up Mistic river,
Let ev'ry clime and ev'ry nation
Attend once more—
