Give dip then. nor be spoken
Aught that would Coiumbians 6!ur.

Well distribute every wo,
Cast aside each monk and frtar,
Hot-press, in our cups, each Toe.

His reputation strive to slaughter,
Or mark his tame with accents rude
Then ever be our song the bearer,
In capitals his fame to prove,
Rork'd off his form, is now, and farer
Corrected stands in realms above.
