TTEND to my ſummons, ye Britiſh Elector

'Tis Freedom announces your inſtant Support

No longer your confidence place in Protectors,

Who pillage your Rights, and of Laws make a SpotSport [sic]

Britannia demands, your Hearts and your Hands,

Away to aſiſt her, the cauſe is divine,

Come ſee

Freedom and Liberty

Nobly exerting the Sons of the Tyne.

'T was Liberty gave us our Commerce and Tresſure

She taught us to cultivate Science and Mirth,

To patronize Learning and ſocial Pleaſure,

To lighten the Heart, and give Jollity birth:

Come, come Britons all, 'tis Liberty's call,

Away with all ſpeed to her ſacred ſhrine:

Come ſee

Freedom and Liberty

Nobly exerting the Sons of the Tyne.

with Freedom all Nations we hold in defiance,

The Glory of Britain o'er Earth ſhe was hurl'd;

An Monrachs deſpotic, now court our alliance,

The terror of States, and the pride of the World

Long, long on our iſle, may Liberty ſmile,

And bleſs us with Brunſwick's illuſtrious Line.

Come ſee

Freedom and Liberty

Nobly exerting the Sons of the Tyne.
