MILLIONS To THE REsCUEr
, Up, up, to the rescue e-the war whoop resouhds,
And your bravest are game for the Sassensach hounds
| Up, to the rescue and rallyto save,
Or ye boast notone drop Of the blood Of the brave
} Old tyranny played the game with our sires,
And they persisted, alas! in rebellions dread fires;
But your tactics are now to await the attack,
But you scatter, for ever, the Sassenach pack.
Each moment Of life is a moment pain
To The heTdmSn who tamely submits to the chain,
And remember, posterity honors his grave
Who fights like the valiant, or falls like the brave
Be true to your chief-hold the hell hounds at bay
, Shun treason and traitors, but shun nothe fray;
Let the onset be theirs, and each forest and glen
: Shall rock at the rush of our warrior men
Together, together, stand firm as yet,
e And fling fierce defiance at tyranny's threat
il Up, up, to the rescue and rally to save,
Or ye boast not one drop ofhe blood ofthe brave"
