A PARODY.  Upon the well known Liberty Song, 
(said to be in great vogue at a certain fortress, where it
was compos'd)
  Come shake your dull noddles, ye pumpkins and bawl,
  And own that you're mad at fair Liberty's call;
  No scandalous conduct can add to your shame,
  Condemn'd to dishonor, inherit the fame.
    In folly you're born, and in folly you'll live,
    To madness still ready,
    And stupidly steady,
    Not as men but as monkies the tokens you give.
. . . [9 more verses with chorus]
