306 iHufes. HTMN ON WAR, WHILE founds of War are heard around, And death and rnin strew the ground; ?o tliee we look, on thee we call, he Parent and the Lord of all. Thou, who haft damp'd on human kind The image of a hcav’n-born mind, And in a father’s wide embrace Haft cherifh’d all the kindred race; O fee 1 with what infatiate rage Thy sons their impious battles wage ; How spreads deftruHion like a flood, And brothers shed their brothers blood ! See guilty paffiems spring to birth, And deeds of hell deform the earth; While righteousness and justice mourn, And love and pity droop forlorn. Great God S wl*fe pow’rful hand can bind The raging wa\cs, the furious wind, O bid the human tempest cease, And hush the mad’ning world to peace. With rev’rence may each hoftileland Hear and obey that high command, Thy Son’s bled errand from above, “ My creatures, live in mutual love ?’* AN EC DOT l. DURING the late war, eighty old German soldiers, who, after having fervecl under differ ent monarchs of Europe, had retired to Ame rica, and converted their swords into plough fbares, voluntarily formed thrm'e'.ves into a company, and diftingwilhed theinfelves in va rious actions, on the fide of liberty. The cap tain was nearly one hundred years old, and had been in the army forty years, and preient in frventeen battles. The drummer was ninety four ; and the youngest man in the corps on the verge of (evenly. instead of a cockade, each nun wore a piece of black crape as a mark of sorrow for being obliged, at so ad vanced a period of fife, to bear arms : “ But,” laid the veterans, “ we fbould be deficient in gratitude, if we did not a£i in defenae of a country, which has afforded us a generous afy- Jun>. and protected us from tyranny and op prefiion.” Such a band of soldiers never be fore, perhaps, appeared in any field of battle.
