Citation | NM.768.056 10 Oct 1768:32 (527) A PARODY ON LIBERTY SONG. (Said to be in great vogue at a certain fortress where it was composed) Come shake your dull noddles, ye pumpkins, and bawl, And own that you're mad at fair liberty's call. No scandalous conduct can add to your shame. Condemn'd to dishonour. Inherit the fame--- . . . [9 verses, with chorus:] In folly you're born, and in folly you'll live, To madness still ready, And stupidly stead, Not as men, but as monkies, the tokens you give. |
