of boasting oaths Re-echoed through the wood, Some vow'd to sleep in dead men's clothes, And some to swim in blood.At Irvine's nod, 'twas fine to see The left prepared to fight, The while the drovers, Wayne and Lee, Drew off upon the right.Which Irvine 'twas Fame don't relate, Nor can the Muse assist her, Whether 'twas he that cocks a hat, Or he that gives a glister.For greatly one was signalized That fought at Chestnut Hill, And Canada immortalized The vender of the pill.Yet the attendance upother poets ride.Sublime upon the stirrups rose The mighty Lee behind, And drove the terror-smitten cows, Like chaff before the wind.But sudden see the woods above Pour down another corps, All helter-skelter in a drove, Like that I sung before. Irvine and terror in the van Came flying all abroad, And cannon, colors, horse, and man Ran tumbling to the road.Still as he fled, 'twas Irvine's cry, And his example too, “Run on, my merry men all—for why?” The shot will not go through. *As when tw<

When a large British and German force began to arrive in the St. Lawrence (May, 1776) the Americans retreated up the river to the mouth of the Sorel. A British force took post at Three Rivers. General Sullivan sent General Thompson with Pennsylvania troops, led by St. Clair, Wayne, and Irvine, to attack the British there. Thompson was badly beaten, and he and Irvine, with 150 private soldiers, were made prisoners. This disaster discouraged Sullivan, and he was compelled to abandon Canada.
