Song, sung by one of the young gentlemen of the Maritime
School on Wednesday the 23d of April, at their Anniversary
Feast. Present his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland,
Lord Rodney, &c. &c.
Come, my boys, in jovial strain,
Join me in a chorus;
Sing the hero of the main,
Who deigns to sit before us.
Chorus.
Let honour, lads, your hearts inflame,
And if you hope for glory,
With zeal pursue the road to fame,
That Rodney trod before ye.
