A NEW SONG WROTE BY A LOYALIST IN CONFINEMENT AT SLEEPY HOLE
IN NANSEMOND, VIRGINIA.
Tune, Rule Britannia, &c.
While rebel sons with ruffian hand
And trait'rous force oppose their King, 
Come join with me, ye loyal band, 
In chorus loud with rapture sing.
Hail, hail, all hail, 
Great George's natal day, 
Loyal hearts the tribute pay.
. . . [7 more verses]
