Here you will find the Poem The Reverend Dr. L---. of poet Mary Barber
In vain you shew a happy Nation, The Gospel's gracious Dispensation; And plead from thence, to bring up Youth To early Piety and Truth. To unattentive Ears you preach, What Miseries alone can teach. 'Tis said, Hibernia boasts a Flood, Famous for petrefying Wood: Tunbridge, thy Min'ral Streams, we know, A stranger Transformation show: Their dire Effects the Wretched feel: Thy Waters turn the Heart to Steel.
