That our readers may fully under
stand this allusion to the conduct of Pre
sident Adams, in regard to Mr. Jefler
jjn, we give the following poetical effu
sion from his pen, which appeared in
the Boston Gazette, in 1802:
SONG,
Supposed to have been written by the Sae
cfMonticello. d
Et ctiamiwca grata colore Venus.... Ovid.
And Venus pleases though as black as jet.
Of all the damsels on the green,
On mountain or in valley,
a, lass so luscious ne'er was seen
As Monticellian Sally.
Yankee doodle, who's the noodle?
What wife were half so handy?
To breed a flock of slaves for stock
A blackamoor's the dandy. '
Search every town and city through,
Search market, street, and alley;
odame at dusk shall meet your view,
So yielding as my Sally.
Yankee doodle, &c.
When press'd by loads of state affairs,
I seek to sport arid dally,
The sweetest solace of my carc3
Is in the lap of Sally.
Yankee doodle, &c
Let Yankee parsons preach their worst,
Let tory witlings rally!
You men of morals! and be curst,
You would snap like sharks for Sally;
Yankee doodle, cc.
She's black you tell me grant she be
Must color always tally?
Black is love's proper hue for me-
And white's the hue for Sally.
Yankee doodle, &c.
What though she bvthe glands secretes,
Must I stand shil-I shall I?
Tack'd up between a pair of sheets,
There's no perfume like Sally.
Yankee doodle, fee.
cu call her slave and pray were slaves
.Made only for the galley?
Try for yourselves, ye witless knaves,
Take each to bed your Sally.
Yankee doodle, 6cc.
