F Ill every Glass, and recommend 'em,
We'll drink our three Generals Healths at large,
For whereso'er these Heroes march,
Conquest renown'd is sure t' attend 'em;
Fill every Glass, and recommend 'em,
We'll drink our Three Generals Healths at large.

What ever shone so bright in Story
   As Fame, that adorns brave Marlborough;
           What ever shone, &c.
   Shocking our Glasses that o'erflow,
Celebrate then his lasting Glory;
           What ever shone, &c.

Drink next then to that Grand Commander
   Eugene, the Delight of all the Brave;
           Drink next, &c.
   Who laurel Wreaths is sure to have,
Where e'er he comes, like Alexander,
           Drink next, &c.

To Auverquerque exalt your Glasses,
   And just to his Valour let us be,
           To Auverquerque, &c.
   Who tho' not youngest of the Three,
For brave Exploits there's few surpasses;
           To Auverquerque, &c.

But now around Boys, Joy maintaining,
  Fill, fill 'em like mine up to the Brink;
          But now around, &c.
  Health to the Glorious Queen I drink,
Let her o'er all the Globe be reigning,
          But now, &c.
