1 1 6 Songs Comftleat,
They're so Loyal and Just,
And so true to their Trust,
That where he goes, may you go, and I go.
Old Records of Fame,
Of the ORMONDS great Name,
Their Actions, like these were of Vigo ;
And since this Prince exceeds,
In his Fore-Father's Deeds,
Then where he goes, may you go, and I go.
'Tis the Praise of our Crown,
That such Men of Renown,
Shou'd lead on the Van, as at Vigo;
Where such Lives and Estates
Are expos'd for our sakes,
Then where he goes, may you go, and I go.
'Twas the whole Nation's Voice,
And we all did rejoyce,
When we heard he Commanded for Vigo;
To ANNA so True,
All her Foes to pursue,
Then where he goes, may you go, and I go.
'Tis the Voice of the Town,
And our Zeal for the Crown,
To serve ORMOND to France, Spain, or Vigo ,
So Noble and brave,
Both to Conquer and save,
Then where he goes, may you go, and I go.
To the Soldiers so kind,
And so humbly inclin'd,
To wave his Applause gain'd at Vigo;
Yet so kind and so true,
He gave all Men their due,
Then where he goes, may you go, and I go.
We justly do own,
All the Honour that's won,
In Flanders, as well as at Vigo ;
But
They're so Loyal and Just,
And so true to their Trust,
That where he goes, may you go, and I go.
