Though nougbt but thy presence can please
Go, dearer than life TO thy Caroline's heart,

Go, share in each danger vaorous part,
And fight till the victory is won
The cherub Of safety before thee shall fly,
And shelter the brave with her wing
And mercy shall guard thee when danger is nigh,
And thee to my bosom shall bring
And think not dear youth, for thy absence I'll moan,
Or weep when bid thee adeu,
I'll twinc the bright chsplct to greet thy return,
And live, dearest soldier, for you.
