Text Appearing Before Image:
r. His bluecoat left, a jacket now he wears,And the ship duties are his only cares;Cheerful of heart, see lovely William dance,And hopes to conquer all the ships of France.The battie comes, he meets it with good heart,And as he should do, plays a Heros part;Now he is boarding, see how he prevails,No standing foe but him he soon assails,Nor falling foe but him he soon bewails.The Tars admire the lovely, dauntless boy,And drink his health with boundless shouts of joy. \ William advanced to the rank of Midshipman. In various climes his countrys foes he fights, In heroism William now delights; The Captain sees him with a heartfelt joy, And makes a Midshipman the noble boy; With modest blushes Williams cheeks are dyd, With heart elate, but not elate with pride: His emulation now is all on fire, To fight his countrys battles his desire. By all the crew brave William is belovd, For evry sailor his good nature provd: Tho in the battle like a lion- seen, In peace a lamb, so gentle is his mien.
