Excerpt from The Adder's Den, or Secrets of the Great Conspiracy to Overthrow Liberty in America
ON the fifteenth day of May, 1776, the birds had returned with the season, and were making forest and grove resound with their songs. The beautiful spring flowers had matured in all their loveliness, and climbing on their tiny leaves the Honey Bee sweetly sung out that winter was gone.
