A vist from long ago. This is by David George DeLancey in memory of person whom represented New York in many ways.
The time period was 1703-1760.
His name is James DeLancey the Chief Justice and Governor and Lieutenant Governor also Presiding Judge and a poem in his matter.
Here i set afloat about the waves,
Though the caves are of mean the bank is clean and bring the straight in us in what we seen,
Though the straight is Courage like the flow of our Homage,
A Pole we may be for a Flag is of Thee,
For the attachment about it may there be a prancement to clout it,
As of the Stars like above in a gentle way may we stay tp play in meant of Day,
As of like the course of Heaven may we Queathin,
For if it's above may it be like a Glove,
Though the Formation of a Nation to Inherit is about us the Ocean in it's Motion,
Of course we share and bearous the crevice in which we serround,
The Bounderies in our Founderies are like the endless of our stay,
The bank to the right is of the square to bear,
may it be above as to love when we declare,
If i leave to see what is about in the right,
Without spite may I return if spite to be of right,
The stars so close a toll may it be as the pole,
The straight of the want may it be of staunt,
For a Flag we have in right of flight is of the night with nothing so bright.
