Description
"The Patriot's tears how can they cease to flow, For virtuous men, by villains doom'd to go Far from their country, and their native shore, Never to see their friends or kindred more. Tho' they die exil'd in a barren land, Their names shall veneration still command, To them shall future ages rear the bust, When venal wretches sink to common dust." in quoted on the title-page.
