Address to Cornwallis on Leaving Virginia

FAREWELL, my lord; may zephyrs waft thee o’er

In health and safety to thy native shore:

There seek Burgoyne, and tell him, though too late,

You blamed unwisely his unhappy fate:

Tell your deluded monarch that you see

The hand of Heaven upraised for liberty:

Tell your exhausted nation, tell them true,

They cannot conquer those who conquer’d you.
