- When Jack, the King’s commander,
Was going to his duty,
Through all the crowd be smil’d and bow’d,
To every blooming beauty.
- The city rung with feats he’d done,
In Portugal and Flanders,
And all the town thought he’d be crown’d
The first of Alexanders.
- To Hampton Court he first repairs,
To kiss great George’s hand, sirs,
Then to harangue on state affairs,
Before he left the land, sirs.
- The “lower house” sat mute as mouse,
To hear his grand oration;
And “all the peers” with loudest cheers,
Proclaim’d him to the nation.
- Then off he went to Canada,
Next to Ticonderoga,
And quitting those, away he goes,
Straightway to Saratoga.
- With great parade his march he made,
To gain his wished for station,
When far and wide his minions hied,
To spread his “Proclamation.”
- The sons of freedom gathered round,
His hostile bands confounded,
And when they’d fain have turn’d their back,
They found themselves surrounded!
- In vain they fought, in vain they fled,
Their chief, humane and tender,
To save the rest, soon thought it best
His forces to surrender.
- Brave St. Clair when he first retired,
Knew what the fates portended;
And Arnold and heroic Gates,
His conduct have defended.
- Thus may America’s brave sons
With honor be rewarded,
And be the fate of all her foes,
The same as here recorded.
