ANSWER TO THE WHIG SONG, "COME
VOTE FOR THE PATRIOT CLAY"

VOTE FOR THE PATRIOT CLAY"
What! vote for him upon whose brow
Shame's ever burning brand shall lie'
He who once sold his country's rights
To foul inisrdle-to gain thereby
We vote for him whose bloody hands
Yet reek with murdered Cilley's gore
Whose every act 5 so linked with crime,
E'en-gpilt might curses on him pours
We vote for him who could his arm
'Gainst Randolph's honored form upraise,
With bastard, foul, vindictive hate!
Is this the subject of your praise'
We vote for him who even now,
When no more young, but sere and gray,
His country's laws in bonds must bind,
His vengsfal, murderous hand to stay!
We vote for him who once could taunt
His fellow freemen with the cry
Of "slaves assuredly we must have;
If they're not black, then wAite wen try!
No! bear to him the answer back,
Insulted, taunted, freemen give
That no "Dictator" yet we want
That free awhile, we yet would live.
Go tell him freedom yet hath charms,
Nor ever basely will we kneef
To Marat of mountain clan,
While Virtue lives or hearts can feel.
