Lord Duncan's Victory over the Dutch Fleet.
“ Dread ye a foe.Dismiss that idle dread; 'Tis death with hostile steps these shores to tread, Safe in the love of Heaven, an ocean flows Around our realm, a barrier from the foes.” HOM. OD. B.9.
Tune-Fy, let us a’ to the bridal.
NAE mair need we sigh when we reckon. An' think on the days o’ langsyne, When bauld Scottish heroes sae doughty, Wi' laurels o’ valour did shine : FOR DUNCAN, a true Scottish callan, Wha lung had been thirsting for fame. Has yerkit his faes in a toolie, And prov’d himself wordy the name.
CHORUS.
While Britons prove true to each other. They re victors by land and by sea ; For Britain was never yet conquer’d, And we trust that she never will be.
