Freedom or Slavery.

            A NEW SONG.

            Tune---RuleBritannia.

                                       I.
THE haughty French, with malice fraught,
Swear to invade our bleſt domain ;
Swear to invade our bleſt domain ;
But we will ſet their—will ſet their threats at nought,
And boldly drive them back again.
Then arm, ye Britons, your happy Iſle to ſave,
Britons never, never, never will be ſlaves.

                                       II.
Shall gallant Britons ever yield,
And bow beneath a tyrant's chain ?
And bow beneath a tyrant's chain ?
No ; we will periſh—will periſh on the field,
Or boldly drive them back again.
Then arm, ye Britons, your happy Iſle to ſave,
Britons never, never, never will be ſlaves.

                                       III.
We'll ſhew them that the noble fame
Our fathers won on Creſſy's plains,
Our fathers won on Creſſy's plains,
Is not yet wither'd—not wither'd, but the ſame
Bold ſpirit in our boſoms reigns.
Then arm, ye Britons, your happy Iſle to ſave,
Britons never, never, never will be ſlaves.

                                       IV.
Your wives and daughters call you on,
To ſave them from rapacious luſt ;
To ſave them from rapacious luſt ;
By all the glory—the glory you have won,
Save them—on you alone they truſt.
Then arm, ye Britons, your lovely females ſave,
Britons never, never, never will be ſlaves.

                                       V.
Shall we, who long have been the dread
And envy of ſurrounding ſhores,
And envy of ſurrounding ſhores,
Bow to a foreign—a foreign yoke, our heads,
And yield to yon Uſurper's power ?
Forbid it, Britons ! ſtill, ſtill your country ſave,
Britons never, never, never will be ſlaves.

                                       VI.
Arm, Sons of Freedom, in this cauſe,
And let ſurrounding nations hear ;
And let ſurrounding nations hear ;
We will defend our—defend our Country's laws,
Britons never yield to fear.
Still ſhall Britannia—Britannia rule the waves,
Britons never, never, never will be ſlaves.

                                             A FRIEND TO OLD ENGLAND.
