Notes
https://archive.org/details/bim_early-english-books-1641-1700_the-court-convert-_waring-henry_1695/page/(7)/mode/1up Our stitcher replaces the poem’s original word “benighted” with Beneathed. The first edition of this source was written under the pseudonym “H.A.” Bolton and Coe list this entry as 278a in the verse section, but don’t explain whether this verse is an addendum to the sampler associated with verse 278. It shares the common date and may be associated with Sophia Newton’s sampler on pg. 201. An image to verify this attribution could not be located.
