" Ralle* was then in the sixty-eighth year of his age, and had resided in his mission at Norridgewock twenty-six years, having previously spent six years hi travelling among the Indian nations in the interior of the American Continent. Oft thus the powers with England disagree, Which does portend what carnage hence shall be, What man's estate must prove, a varied life. From quiet peace proceeds terrific strife ; From plenty, dearth ; from faith and virtue, sin ; 285 INDIAN WARS. From health, di...sease, that wages war within. Thus strangely intermixed are good and ill, True to the purpose of a sovereign Will : Nature but thrives by fire that burns within : From planets broken other worlds begin ; Yet bloody conflicts, such the world abhor As mark the advent of avenging war Enough enough ! yet others still there were Of blood profuse. 'Tis man's estate to err : Let pass Queen Anne's, the troubles of her day ; The craft of "Jesuits, fruitful of dismay; Nor need to note the French and Indian strife, Nor trace the torch, the tomahawk, and knife Farther.
