7 When a hipmate I epied,

I eager to him cried

Pray tell a wounded mesmate

What cheer ho?

When the action it was over,

Brave Nelon was victorious,

And I tho' thus diabled

Rejoiced and lay below.

That what I uffer'd happned

Upon a day o glorious,

For King and Country fighting.

So well the French may know

Now at my eae my pipe I'll mock,

And tell my Poll the erious joke,

How I and Nelon uffered

In Action with the foe.

This may each Britih tar,

Depie the fate of war,

When Britih cannons thunder,

Cry what cheer ho?
