Rh Oh! they want the wild, sweet-briery fence,
 * Which round the flowers of dwells,

Which warns the touch, while winning the sense,
 * Nor charms us least, when it most repels.

Then remember, wherever your goblet is crown'd,
 * Thro' this world whether eastward or westward you roam,

When a cup to the smile of dear woman goes round,
 * Oh! remember the smile which adorns her at home.

In, when the heart of a woman sets sail
 * On the ocean of wedlock its fortune to try,

Love seldom goes far in a vessel so frail,
 * But just pilots her off, and then bids her good-bye!

While the daughters of keep the boy
 * Ever smiling beside his faithful oar,

Through billows of woe and beams of joy
 * The same as he look'd, when he left the shore.

Then remember, wherever your goblet is crown'd,
 * Thro' this world whether eastward or westward you roam,

When a cup to the smile of dear woman goes round,
 * Oh! remember the smile which adorns her at home.
