The news of this our march, fame doth transport With speed to Great Miaantinomoh's court; Nor had that pensive King, forgot the losses, He had sustained through Sassacus's forces. Cheer'd with the news, his Captains all as one, In humble manner do address the throne, And press the King to give them his commission To join the English in this Expedition. To their request the cheerful King assents. WOLCOTT.
