English poem
To His Excellency FRANCIS NICHOLSON
by Anonymous
Rome had her Scipio. Carthage her Hannibal: Every Age boasts some brave GENERAL. Those God-like Heroes that have gain'd a Name, And stand recorded in the Lists of Fame; Those whom the World do Great and Glorious call, They 're all compleat in our brave General: We have Scipio and Hannibal in ONE, They both survive in our Great NICHOLSON.
