CcLUMBIA's sons, prepare, unite,
| Now for your country's tr eedom fight,
And with your swords maintain her right,
'Gainst pride and persecution
And while You scourge our naughty foes,
I'll sing the martial deeds of those,
Whose metal tried.
Soon lower'd the pride

Al iir'd with resolution;
The Boosting chieftain bent his course,
Resolved TO pat his threats in force,
And with BIS guns,
Subdue the sons
OF Yankees, who no danger shuns,
On board the CONSTITUTION
Our gallant ship now swiftly flies,
And every man his gun supplies,
While our commander chee:iy cries,
Evince your res tuition
With ardor each to action springs,
Whilst with three cheers the wc!kin rings
Our foes amazed,
With wonder gazed,
To see CoLUMBIA's standard raised
On boaid the CONSTITUTION.
The GuERR1ERE's balls flew thick and hot
Around us, while We answered not,
But steer'd till within pistol shot,
Resolved on execution.
Cur hrst hroadside like thunder roar'd,
And brought her mizen by the board,
Her maii-mast too
And foremost few
Inpieces, while our jovial crew
Hussa'a The CONSTITUTION.
When DA cREs first received this check.
Aud saw the Guerrero a wreck,
Himself a prisoner on the deck,
His ships crew in confusion
Perceived the Yankee BOYS on board,
With grier beheld the union lowcr'd;
All hope now fed,

The Cop of war TO vict'ry led
Brave HULL in the CONSTITUTION
This Brton oft had made his boast,
He'd with his crew, q chosen host,
Pour fell destruction round our coast,
And work revolutions
Urg'd by his pride challenge sent

Wishing to meet
