THE Valiant Eugene to Vienna is gone,
            And since deny'd,
            To be supply'd,
    All his Troops are undone;
        For the haughty Vendosme,
        New Recruits being come,
        So proud is grown,
        Of two to one,
    He Revenge swears to push home:
        And late Losses,
        Disgraces and Crosses,
    Will soon retaliate now the General is gone;
        Oh Leopold, Oh Baden,
        What Fiend was perswading,
        Your Priest-ridden Clan,
        Simply to baulk so rare a Man.

Tho' Carthage grew proud, when story once shew'd,
        How well the Grand,
        Blind Affrican,
    O'er the Alps hew'd out his Road;
