Epistle to Emily and wartime scenes from 18th century print
A fragmentary miscellany mixes an epistolary verse address to Emily about a late fire and national ruin with wartime reminiscences. It recounts a brutal retreat, a comrade named Little aiding a wounded narrator, and a bridge escape amid cannon fire. The piece includes curiosities on Sir John’s lion sermon, ancient cannon, a Chinese death reflection, and a note on pencil cedar to deter moths.
