<g>DEAR</g> Pinckaninny, if half a Guinny,
To Love will Win ye,
    I lay it here down;
We must be Thrifty,
'Twill serve to shift ye,
And I know Fifty,
    Will do't for a Crown.

Dunns come so boldly,
King's Money so slowly,
That by all things Holy,
    'Tis all I can say;
Yet I'm so rapt in,
The Snare that I'm trapt in,
As I'm a true Captain,
    Give more than my Pay.

Good Captain Thunder,
Go mind your Plunder,
Ods——ns I wonder,
    You dare be so bold;
Thus to be making,
A Treaty so sneaking,
Or Dream too of taking,
    My Fort with small Gold.

Other Town Misses,
May gape at Ten Pieces,
But who me possesses,
    Full Twenty shall Pay;
To all poor Rogues in Buff,
Thus, thus I strut and huff,
So Captain kick and cuff,
    March on your way.
