From the London Evening Post, of March 14.
THE SAILOR'S ADDRESS.
Come listen, my cocks, to a brother and friend,
One and all to my song, gallant sailors, attend,
Sons of Freedom, ourselves, lets be just as we're brave,
Nor America's freedom attempt to enslave.
Firm as oak are our hearts, where true glory depends,
Steady, boys steady,
We'll always be ready
To fight all our foes, not to murder our friends.
. . . [5 more verses with burden, "Firm as oak, &c."]
