( 7 )
3. God’s name you ſhall no more adore—
For all above us we abhor.
4. No more on Sunday read or pray,
Religion now is done away.
5. No more regard what parents ſay,
Each child is free to take his way.
6. No more are ye forbid to kill,
Cut throat and murder whom ye will.
7. The crime adultry we diſown,
And all mens wives uſe as our own.
8. Take every thing we meet by chance,
Thieving’s no more forbid in France.
9. Falſe witneſs bear in any thing,
That can injure a Lord or King.
10. Covet and ſeize whate'er you ſee,
French Liberty makes all men free.
KING, LIBERTY, and LAWS; or, French Liberty & Tom Pain in the Suds.
A NEW SONG. (Never before printed.)
Tune——Hearts of Oak.
YE Britons ſo brave, ſo bold, and ſo free,
Come lend your attention and liſten to me;
⟨I'll⟩ ſhew you moſt clearly the plots that are laid,
⟨To⟩ ſteal all your comforts—your bleſſings invade:
Chorus——But to join in the cauſe
Of King, Liberty, and Laws,
Ye always are ready,
And ſteady, boys, ſteady,
To defend our Old England, huzza! boys, huzza!
⟨The⟩ French moſt perſidious we ever have found,
⟨Old⟩ England they hate, and would fain pull her down;
⟨Our⟩ glory they envy—our happineſs too,
⟨And⟩ would change our old gold for their tinſel ſo new:
But we'll ſhew in the cauſe, &c,
⟨Afraid⟩ that the Lion of Old England ſhould wake,
They try for to ſteal that they dare not to take;
They pay wicked men to ſeduce you with lies,
And ⟨to⟩ rob you ſecurely, throw duſt in your eyes:
But they'll find in the cauſe; &c.
