HOT STUFF. 
A Song, by Ned Botwood, Serjeant of Grenadiers in the 47th
regiment, before they embarked for the expedition against
Quebec.
 (Tune, Lilies of France.)
Come, each death-doing dog who dare venture his neck,
Come follow the hero that goes to Quebec;
Jump aboard of the transports, and loose every sail,
Pay your debts at the tavern by giving leg-bail;
And ye that love fighting, shall soon have enough:
Wolf commands us, my boys, we will give them Hot Stuff.
. . . [4 more verses of 6 lines each]
