 | Poems by Robert Gomersall |  |
Benjamin takes th'alarme, and having chose
One in whose faithfulnesse they might repose
A wary confidence; they quit the wall
And to the wider field issue out all,
Lest if they stay'd within, and did oppose
Rampiers and ditches onely to their foes,
They might have bragg'd, (as if that they had won)
Making a prison of their garrison.
One in whose faithfulnesse they might repose
A wary confidence; they quit the wall
And to the wider field issue out all,
74
Rampiers and ditches onely to their foes,
They might have bragg'd, (as if that they had won)
Making a prison of their garrison.
