letra de lamentation over boston - william billings

by the rivers of watertown we sat down and wept
we wept when we remembered, o boston
lord god of heaven, preserve them, defend them
deliver and restore them unto us again
forbid it, lord god
forbid that those who have sucked bostonian br–sts
should thirst for american blood
a voice was heard in roxbury which echoed through the continent
weeping for boston because of their danger
is boston my dеar town, is it my native place?
for since thеir calamity i do earnestly remember it still!
if i forget thee, yea, if i do not remember thee
then let my numbers cease to flow, then be my muse unkind
then let my tongue forget to move and ever be confined;
let horrid jargon split the air and rive my nerves asunder
let hateful discord greet my ear as terrible as thunder
let harmony be banished hence and consonance depart;
let dissonance erect her throne and reign within my heart
