From the London Magazine for June 1740.
Admiral Hosier's Ghost. 
To the tune of, Come and listen to my Ditty.
  As, near Porto Bello lying, 
  On the gently swelling flood, 
  At midnight with streamers flying, 
  Our triumphant navy rode;
  There, while Vernon sate, all glorious, 
  From the Spaniards late defeat, 
  And his crew, with shouts victorious, 
  Drank success to England's fleet.
  . . . [8 more verses]
