The Hottentot Chief presents the following to publick view,
which he found in the Kraal of one of his subjects.
Huzza! Huzza! then cry'd a skinner,
Make way, make way for me, a sinner;
An independent ne'er shall live,
I swear by Laud or cousin Clive.
Toroddle, toroddle torall.
. . . [verse 2 and 3, 7 lines each]
Chorus.
And as for their estates we must tax 'em,
And if they won's consent, we will ax 'em,
My brave boy-oy-oy-oys.
New-York, 28th January, 1774.
To be continued as the occasion may require.
