Religion without prieftcraft, and politics without

party.

Love to one, friendfhlpto a fe^, good will to all. May the coward never wear a red coat, nor the hy pocrite a black one. Safe arrival of our outward and homeward-hound

fleets.

The army and navy of Great Britain. A halter to them who deferve it. A fpeedy exportation to all the enemies of England,

without a drawback.

May our endeavours be always fuccefsful when en gaged under the banner of juftice May we always be able to refift me aflaults of profpe-

rity and adverfity. Provifion to the unprovided. May we have in our arms, what we love ia our

hearts.

Senfetowin a heart, and merit to keep, it. May we never (peak to deceive, nor lilten to betray. Short fhoes and long corns to the enemies of Great

Britain May our. pleafures be boundlefs while we have time

to enjoy them.

A head to earn, and a heart to fpend. All fortune's daughters but the eldeft. All we wifli, and all we want. All that gives you pleafures All true hearts and found bottoms. Conftancy in love, and fincerity in friendship. Great nr n honeft, and lioneft men great. . Happy to meet, happy to part, and happy to meet

again

Health, joy, and mutual love.. To every one that you and I know. Independency, and a genteel (urticiency.
