AN AMERICAN PARODY, ON THE OLD SONG, OF "RULE BRITANNIA."
When Britons first, by heav'ns command,
Arose from out the azure main,
This was the character of the land,
And guardian angels sung this strain:
Rule Britannia, rule the waves,
Britons never will be slaves.
. . . [8 verses with burden "Rule Britannia. . ]
