Tll set file of soldiers around;
These hIgh-toned coves hev ben too free

They hey ben TOO freew
And he stationed soldiers, solemn and STILL
And his vaults he piled with the gold again;
Then came on tiptoe the high-toned men
With hammer and crow and jimmy aud drill
We crushed in the tyrants fangs!' they cried
The spectacle cruelty wounds our pride:
Ii they went Oft we should feel more free
Withdraw 'em and we
Should feel more freew

With jimmy and drill and hammer and crow,
And they kept a-walkng to and fro
With prosecuted and saddened air,
And mule-team waited beside the wall.

They said. We ain'i dom nothIn at all,
But if you 'uns went we should feel more free.
We all agree
We should feel more Free
And the bigh-toned men uttered dismal croaks.
And shouted, You'd ought to obey the law
Which says that You shant be a watchin' folksp
