8 whole, I true,

For all the rest may to it bow,

And that's baith ane and a':

What numbers from them do get bread!

For many a family by them is fed,

And every week their money's paid,

For Call-again by them's kill'd dead,

And far he's ent awa', awa', &c.

Their Ships end terror unto France,

For to our coasts if they advance,

They oon will make them reel and dance,

They ne'er will get awa':

Like Men-of-War they do appear,

When up to London they do steer;

For France and Spain they do nor fear,

Becae they dare not them come near,

At home nor far awa', awa'. &c.

Great Authors do reound our fame,

And celebrate our ancient name,

Our Arthur's Oven and dyke of Graham,

That's heard of far awa.

Then let a health, my friends, go round,

With peace and plenty we abound;

'Mongst us no want is to be found.

Of wars may we ne er hear the ound,

But from us far awa', awa',

But from us far awa'.
