First Line: "rudely forced to drink tea, massachusetts"
Last Line: The one who begins or resists the assault? Save
Subject(s): American Revolution;boston Tea Party


RUDELY forced to drink tea, Massachusetts, in anger,
Spills the tea on John Bull. John falls on to bang her.
Massachusetts, enraged, calls her neighbors to aid
And give Master John a severe bastinade.
Now, good men of the law, who is at fault,
The one who begins or resists the assault?
